Recently, I've been researching a lot of info about PSUs (and lots of stuff related to PSUs) and decided to make a small spreadsheet of the cost savings obtained from buying the more power efficient 80+ PSU types. You can use the spreadsheet by putting in the cost of your local seasonal power rates, the average time you plan on weekdays, the average time you play on weekends/holidays, your estimated or expected watt usage with your current or future computer, and the prices of each 80+ type (normal, bronze, silver, etc.) you are evaluating.
The assumptions used in the spreadsheet are listed at the bottom, and the Tips page is in the second tab along with some links that might be useful.
You will most likely need to resize the boxes after you download. The link will also remain in my signature.
