I would look for a Sparkle/FSP FSP400-60PFN or FSP400-60GN(12V) or something like that. They offer 40.0A on the +5v rail. I got one off fleabay for $30 a while back for a dual K7 board. Sparkle/SPI/FSP units have always been among the best.
As far as Antec, yes, they were awful. Antec PSUs were, for years, OEM'd by CWT. They've since shifted most of their production to SeaSonic for lines such as the TruePower Trio and EarthWatts...I wouldn't mind those, but I've seen many a TPI and TPII with very low +5v rails. Even had a TPI explode. :) I personally wouldn't ever buy anything that wasn't SeaSonic or SPI/FSP OEM'd. Funny thing is that most of the PCP&C units were, at least up until the new models post-OCZ acquisition, actually made by SeaSonic (Silencer) or Win-tact (Turbo Cool). Not sure anymore.
