Hello, I need to choose a PSU for my new system:

AMD Athlon II X4 750k
Gigabyte R9 270x
Kingston 8GB 1600 Hyperblue
ASRock FM2A88X Extreme4+

On the official websites of the manufacturers claim that the video card needs 500w while the cpu needs 100w, but I think these are overestimated, am I correct?

So, will a 600-650 W PSU do the work? I'm looking for these:

Seasonic S12II-620Bronze
XFX P1-650S-NLB9 Core Edition Pro 650 W
Corsair CX600M

Thank you!

Any one of the three will do the job just fine. The power requirements on websites tend to be conservative (meaning manufacturers tend to want larger psu's), but are generally within reason. A 270x pulls about 175w at load and the balance of the system may be anywhere from 100-200w.

Of the three you listed, I would go in the order of XFX (made by seasonic), Seasonic, Corsair.
