How many watts should my PSU be for this build:
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor (£74.62 @ Amazon UK)
Motherboard: ASRock 980DE3/U3S3 ATX AM3+ Motherboard (£44.15 @ Amazon UK)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (£40.31 @ Amazon UK)
Optical Drive: Samsung SH-224DB/BEBE DVD/CD Writer (£11.99 @ Ebuyer)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 (OEM) (64-bit) (£71.18)
Wireless Network Adapter: TP-Link TL-WN881ND 802.11b/g/n PCI-Express x1 Wi-Fi Adapter (£10.20)
Case: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-01 Red LED Mid-Tower Gaming Case (£37.98)
GPU: Asus GTX 750 Ti 2GB GDDR5 Dual DVI HDMI PCI-E Graphics Card (£109.98)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600 Mhz CL9 XMP Performance Desktop Memory Kit Black (£56.98)
Fan: Xilence Black 120mm Case Fan (£2.99)
Fan: Xilence Black 120mm Case Fan (£2.99)
and one more 120mm LED fan that came with the case
I'm not planning to overclock
I was hoping that this 430W PSU would be OK: http://www.corsair.com/en/builder-series-cx430-v2-80plus-certified-power-supply
if not, then either this EVGA 500W one or this Corsair 500W one (preferably the EVGA because it's cheaper)
Online calculators give different results, that's why I'm asking
Thank you
