My PSU, one that came with my tiny case, is of very weird dimensions. I need to buy a new one but have only found a handful of PSUs that would actually fit. Since none of them are from any manufacturer that I recognize, I was hoping someone might have an opinion on this.
Which case did you get? What are your other components? I'm very wary about any PSU in the 200-300W range unless the components are appropriately low-consumption.
Simply choosing from your list, SeaSonic is a reputable manufacturer.
Edit: ok wow! The 12V rails on that SeaSonic are excellent for such a small PSU!
Hrrrmmmm. I'm having trouble figuring out if Shuttle PSUs are in the ITX form factor since I've never actually tried swapping shuttle and standard mini-itx PSUs (they sure look like the same form factor, to me.)
But anyhow, if they're the same (or close enough that you can jimmy it,) I would absolutely recommend a shuttle PSU. They're well made and have really good rail balance for mainboard+CPU/GPU/components that actually lets them do pretty well with decent gear.

Its an In Win case. Side note, never buy anything from In Win (which is unfortunate because this is a fairly clever case), their customer service has not responded at all to e-mails or phone calls from me or New Egg for a week now. So much for a manufacturer's warranty... but I digress.

Its a fairly low power build.
