What Wattage PSU do I need? (Newegg says 900)

CrazyMateo · Sep 17, 2014

Here is my build:

AMD FX-8350 Black Edition (8-Core)
ASUS M5A97 LE Motherboard
8 GB Ram (Ripjaws X)
HIS iPower IceQ X² Boost Radeon R9 270 2GB Graphics Card
2x 7200 RPM SATA Hard Drives

Thank you in advance, I just keep getting different answers from different calculators. Strangest of which, from Newegg, which ranged from 892 watts up to 951 watts. If I am missing anything here that may be helpful, let me know, and I'll be sure to add it.
