Well the 500w aspire PSU that came with my case is 20pin and wont fit the 24 pin DFI nF4 Ultra-d mother board. I was only planning on using it for a couple weeks anyway until I boughta different one. I dont want to spend a whole lot of money If I can help it. Under 150.00 but much under that if I dont need it for my requirements..

Here is what I need it to do:

Must be 24 pin,
I want it to be able to sufficently be able to power the board with good Over clocking potential on just air. Also it must be able to power 6 fans, 4 80mm case fans. 1 120mm fan in case door. and a 92mm high powered delta fan that will be seating on the heat sink. 3 of the 80mm fans will be connected to a fan controler using 1 20w channel. Besides that just 1 sata HDD and as of now just 1 dvd drive.

Thanks for any suggestions this is the only thing holding me back from finishing this computer so I aprecieate any feedback on something I can purchase asap.

He said under $150. For that the OCZ Powerstream 520w is a great choice.
