Antec (Truepower) will not disappoint you. I would really lean toward that brand. Without testing a PSU a crude but often good way to judge it is simply by weight. If its heavy its most likely a good unit.
I had to go through alot of power supplies before I learned not to use cheapies on high end systems that are worthless brands (Powmax, Q-max, and Real PC Power to name a few) even though they claimed to be high wattage between 450 and 500 for most, they are horribly unstable.
One other PSU brand besides Antec and Thermaltake that did the job fine for my high end systems was a Soyo brand. I thought I would mention it becuase it has a neato looking little front panel that you can tweak a couple important rail voltages with (Best looking PSU I own). Antec has something similar and even better quality but the Soyo unit is stable enough to run my P4 3.0C GHZ system with an ATI Radeon 9800 pro video card without any stabability problems you'd get with the cheapy power supplies I mentioned above (You know like an occasional video game lockup, a slightly flickering LCD screen, and if its really bad you'll get either app restarts or worse yet your computer might restart itsself out of the blue
).
Heres a link to the Soyo PSU I'm talking about.

Whereever Belgrade is, I'm sure you can do a Google search and find something in your area if your not in the US. Goodluck.
