Power usage varies by usage and load on the system but theoretically it can not exceed the maximum your PSU can support which is 500W.

On a relatively off topic note, that is not a very good quality PSU and I think one of the lowest offered by Be Quiet. I'd suggest you replace it with a good quality 500-550W PSU first chance you get.

U maybe overthinking this. Price differential between 350/500 that much? Why not just buy for the future. Unlike most everything else UPS technology won't change much if any. U will also want to plug in router modem switches because no good when PC stays up but your Internet dies immediately.

500W from a high quality PSU is what you need
