Ideally you want to look for a modular "80 Silver" or "80 Gold". While the 80 Silver or Gold are an energy efficiency rating, they tend to be the higher quality models.

Modular just makes it easier to built and modify.

I've used a bunch of different brands. Silverstone is a good value.

PC Power & Cooling makes some of the best power supplies I've used. Tighter voltage tolerances and much more solid than pretty much anything else. Only problem with the "modular" power supplies, IMO, is another point of failure, as well as potential resistance/voltage drop. They're neat, but a fad and totally unnessicary IMO.
