http://www.newegg.com/global/uk/Product/Product.aspx?It... this should suffice ...corsair and seasonic build the best power supply units out there, as for RAM...i'd go with either...which ever one is cheaper and if you're gonna have an aftermarket cpu cooler, whichever ram is low profile should do
...this one should also do http://www.newegg.com/global/uk/Product/Product.aspx?It... ...its £10 more expensive but its Seasonic (Corsair psu's are basically seasonic rebrands but i think Seasonic would provide with a better warranty depending on what country you're in)

If you plan on having an SLI and/or overclocking, then maybe look toward having a 750 or 850w psu.

Otherwise, a quality 650w would do fine.

If in future like i plan to upgrade the memory for 8gb to 16gb or higher would they require any additional power?
Thanks for the help.
