I looked around for a replacement PSU recently and ended up putting the ThunderDream on my list to buy, if that's any help.

Thundertronics ThunderDream when it's in stock. The Robot Retro one mentioned earlier is quite good, too.

I've had success with an RPT-6003 with some customization to fit it inside the Dreamcast. I think this is the absolute best if you're in the mood for some manual work.
