Hi
Here are the available PSUs in my country : http://www.sbsinformatique.com/tunisie-alimentations (the cooler master ones are available)
I can't spend more than 200dt and preferably as low as possible.
My rig is : i5-4440 + r9 290 + 8gb 1600mhz ram + ssd + hdd
Can you recommend which one I should pick ?
Thanks

XFX650W is the best option there near your budget.

They also carry the 550W XFX

http://www.sbsinformatique.com/prod-3717-Bloc-dAlimenta...

R9-290 showed peaks of 336W but an average of 215W. And your processor will only be able to pull around 100W under heavy load. Rest of your system should total to be under the maximum rated load.

Your estimated power draw is around 450w tops based on the parts stated and adding other vital parts on.
550w would be more than enough with headroom included, based on the PSU's shown in your link, the XFX 550W would be the best choice

EVGA/Seasonic/XFX are the best PSU manufacturers to look out for
