Ive read many different reviews, but I think ill get a better answer if I just ask here. My current build ill be ordering soon will have as followed.

Case - Coolermaster HAF 912
Mobo - GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3
CPU - AMD FX-8350
GPU - SAPPHIRE Vapor-X Radeon HD 7950
RAM - 8GB Corsair Vengeance
HDD -Western Digital WD AV-GP 500GB.
DVD drive- Asus Black sata.

Right now I was thinking about going for the Thermaltake SMART series 650W PSU, but, idk if Ill need more, or less than that. Help!!

For me its a good choice but if your are thinking to upgrade more in the future if i were you i would take
a 750W/650W psu. My choice Corsair or Silverstone (I just like the brand).

7950 need ~250W at peak. So you dont need to much power . And also on CF ~360W. So a 650W would do good.

You can pick one of these. :
