Seasonic S12 II Bronze 520W review It's a great PSU choice.
It's also a larger percentage of your budget than most builds.

All of those have adequate power for your parts, with room for future expansion.
The Neo Eco 520C is a cousin under the skin to the Seasonic 520 and is probably the best of the rest after the Seasonic itself.
