I have finally made my final list on what my parts will be in my pc build (note: my first time building my PC). But then I realized I have no idea how much watts I'll need in my power supply. On PC Part Picker, it said something around 250-300 watts, but noted this is only a rough estimate. So, I'm asking for some help. Here are the parts:
Intel Core i3-4160 3.6GHz Dual-Core Processor
MSI Z97 PC MATE ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Western Digital WD Green 2TB 5400RPM
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 650
One last note:
On the back of my graphics card box it says that the minimum requirement is 400W. What does that imply on what I should get? Get a 500W supply?
