Hello guys,
I am thinking to build a new Gaming System.
But I am little confused in power supply ! How much Watts do I really require ?
Specs ~
Processor - i5 4440
Motherboard - Gigabyte B85M
RAM - 8 GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3
GPU - GTX 960 4GB
1 DVD Writer
1 TB WD Green
How much watt power supply will be enough ?
And also let me know if I upgrade my system in future by adding another HDD and 1x SSD and more 8GB Ram then how much power do I need ?

Thanks in Advance 🙂

As of now a decent 450 Watt PSU would work just fine, adding another HDD,SSD, and more memory really don't even factor in you would still be using less than 300 Watts. The difference in price in the 450 and 550 watt PSU is about nothing and as stated above would allow you to upgrade to a higher end video card in the future.
I would strongly suggest not getting the green drive and get the WD blue drive.
