Antec, SilenX, Sparkle, Enermax...I'd choose any of those. Expect to pay a good bit. I paid $55 for my 350w Enermax PSU and it's fuckin awesome. It has 8 voltage rails and a nice sleeve coating for the big wires. It's also really quiet, even with the (adjustable) PSU fans turned all the way up (yes, it has two fans in it, both controllable).

What on earth would ya need 500 watts for? My brother has a 410w Enermax PSU and it powers his 5 hard drives, CD-RW, quad-cathodes, 4 case fans, floppy, etc. with room to spare. Unless you have like 10 hard drives, I can't see needing 500w, especially with a brand-name PSU.
