This is my first time building a pc and I know nothing about power consumption. Could anyone please tell me the power consumption of my build and the minimum psu I should get?
Here is my build:
AMD R9 290X (most likely will be PowerColor AXR9 290X 4GBD5-MDH/OC)
i7 4770
ASUS Z87-K
8GB DDR3 RAM
TOSHIBA DT01ACA100 1TB HDD
Thermaltake Bigwater A80 Cooler
And also maybe some chassis fans and wireless adapter
ASUS DRW-24B5ST Optical Drive
If that would help, I do not overclock my computer.
thank you so much in advance!

Sounds about right. I calculate the total power draw at slightly under 400 Watts so a good 600 Watt power supply would be a great choice.
