Will you be overclocking your CPU? If yes, then a 500-600W would be good and it will provide some extra headroom.

Hope this helps you out mate. :)

I would say a 500W would be more than enough,

Just get a corsair 500-600 Watt PSU , that should do the trick for you, also all your components work together :)

The Corsair VS650w is bad....

u can also go for a Seasonic S12II 620w or an Seasonic M12II 620w or 650w....

even Seasonic G series 650w is good....

You will have a high performance CPU and mobo but you connect them to a WD green HDD. I would suggest a WD Blue as a better alternative because the green will operate at reduced speeds. The green also spins down when idle so that you will have to wait for it to spin back up whenever you need some files on the HDD.
