I crowd sourced this on one of the big paintball boards, lot's of paintballers are also uber geeks.

Several recommendations for Corsair brand.

The advantage to Best buy is you can see it's the same size with the holes in the right places.

Exactly. You want the fan on the correct surface so it doesn't wind up pressed against a neighboring component that blocks off the airflow. You want the outlet and any switches to be lined up with the holes in your case, although you can cut holes into your case as needed.

I seem to remember paying $70 for mine. Your $45 is a better deal if it fits. But for me, paying an extra $25 to open the box before purchase and be certain it will work and will only require one trip to the store is not anything to look down your nose at. YMMV

Some disassemble computers to sell the parts. On Ebay, you may find the exact same supply for less money.
