Again 550 is more than enough. As DSzymborski mentioned, your main worry is GPU and CPU. Other items will sip on the power supply. If you didn't have a GPU, a 400-450 would be enough. This is why most pre-built have only 250w.

The big components like the CPU and GPU are the ones that use most of the power. Stuff like LEDs on the fans is just rounding error.

I would suggest a 620W with any 80+ certified rating. Im running a 6700k, 16gb ram, gtx 970, and the 620 is more than enough. Just remember you always want breathing room with power supplies.
