Wattage isn't everything. Not all PSUs deliver what they promise. Where are you from and what is your budget in your local currency?

Easy pick then:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA G2 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply (£74.99 @ Amazon UK)
Total: £74.99
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

7 year warranty, extremely good build quality and outstanding performance. Easily one of the best PSUs on the market. Also, wait a bit and get the RX 480 instead of a 380X. It'll give you performance comparable to that of a GTX 980 if benchmarks and rumors hold true (Or at least that of a 970 if not) for $199 (Give or take £220-200 in the UK accounting for the initial market skimming and generally higher component prices in the UK). It'll be released on June 29th, and you can expect it to be in UK stores a week or two later.
