how much is electricity around your parts? efficiency also matters if its more expensive in your area. also you can use any wattage caluclator. i found this on Seasonic's website. https://seasonic.com/psu-calculator/
their new Focus line is pretty good, got both gold and platinum rating. i think 650w-750w is good enough.
