What amount of a power supply is enough for a normal PC & which add-on components increase the need of power supply?
& if a PC needs 300w & I install 600w, will there be any bad effect on the whole system?
am Curious to know these....

I´d say go with a 600/650W PSU which will leave you with lots of headroom.
Also, I don´t think the price difference between a 500W and a 600/650W PSU would be big enough to consider one.

As for a particular PSU, I´d just go with one of the big brands like Corsair, BeQuiet, XFX or Seasonic.

Depends on your definition of "normal PC". The average around these is 700W imo.



Everything that draws power. As simple as that.
But the components that usually draw the most power are of course the GPU and CPU.




Not really.
