You don't need a platinum rated psu, a xfx or seasonic 550w will be more than enough

A GTX780 needs a 8 and a 6 pin connector. A psu in the 600-650w range will have that.
The price premium for a gold or platinum efficiency psu is probably not worth it. The savings from electricity are minimal. The main reason to do so is in a build where quiet is very important. gold or platinum rating psu's will have fans that hardly turn on at all.
Whatever, buy only a quality unit.

I love ITX builds. Phanteks should supply good paste, no extra should be needed. Check the box.
