450w is plenty. The GPU is pretty low end and will use next to no power.

for future upgradation?

tiny voices · Apr 24, 2014

what for future upgrading? Do you plan to add a more powerful GPU? Then get the 550w version.

Hey,one thing. There's a top ventilation system in a SMPS. If the cabinet does have the place for SMPS on the ground,then it's okay but if I got to install that to upper place then the PSU fan gets blocked right?

The Case should have a place at the bottom for the PSU which a vent at the bottom so the PSU can pull air from outside the case. The PSU should be installed fan DOWN on the bottom of the case.

Thats the thing! Im thinking for a Corsair VS550 which has upper chasis fan

Do you know any with bottom fan?

tiny voices · Apr 26, 2014

They are ALL bottom fan. You are thinking about them upside down.

The board should stay below the fan not above. Thats a negetive positioning. Give me some pics' link of VS550 fitted in cabinet.

Same designed PSU (like every other PSU on this planet). This is how it should look. Fan down.
