I'm trying to build a new computer because my old one fried. I'm looking at these components:

AMD FX 8350
GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3P
and 2 G. Skill Ripjaws 4gb 1866

I'm looking at a EVGA 600B 600w power supply for my build but I want to know if thats sufficient to power everything, if its too much or if it's not enough. Also I want to be able to provide power to future add ons such as a graphics card and some other small components such as fans but nothing big. I would appreciate any help thank you.

right now a good fit would be a 400-450w psu but bear in mind that if you want to replace your graphics card later a good 550-600w psu would be a wise investment as it will run most single card setups down the road giving you more options but in any case DO NOT skimp on a psu get a quality unit

I'd suggest to get a i5 4460 with a asrock h97 pro or asus z87-a motherboard,also the 1866 mhz ram isn't really gonna do anything over the 1600mhz.
A evga 600b is enough to power up your rig upto a gtx 970.
