Power for this PC?

[Emir]

Hi,
I want to know how much power I should buy for this system:

main: MSI Z77A-G43
cpu: 3570k
VGA: 7870 Saphire
ram: Gskill Ripjaws 8GB CL9 1600
HDD: Seagate 1TB sata III 64MB ST1000DM003
monitor: LG IPS224V
speaker: Edifier X220
ODD: Pioneer 24X

in future I will add another 8G ram, I may change the VGA with more powerful one and also I may overclock. is a 650W P.S.U enough? exactly I mean this one: Green GP650B - OC

thanks

It's also the quality of the power , here's a nice modular one.

I don't think that would be available here in our market, what about the PSU I have chosen? is it good too?
so 650w in any condition I mentioned such as adding ram, upgrading to stronger VGA, overclocking , ... will respond?

Seasonic , XFX , Corsair not CX series , Antec.

I don't want brand names! please answer my questions.

500w for now , a 650w for future of the manufacturers I mentioned.

and do you have info about that green model? I mean: Green GP650B - OC
seems that's made for overclocking!

Don't know how much of an overclock it would support, but should have more then enough power for your system.
The Green website:
http://www.green-case.com/products/power/power.php?model=GP650B-OC

they list the specs. near the bottom of the page and it says that it is made by Channel Well Tech. CWT is usually decent builder of powersupplies; I think most would consider them middle of the road capable. The below link has CWT in tier 3; not bad, not great.

If you can find that xfx unit, even a 550 or 500 watt job, I would go with that, per SR-71. Otherwise you probably will be o.k.

Thanks,
if a system would need for example 500W and we buy a 750W power, can that make problem for system and performance?
I want to do so for reasons like I may upgrade for example my graphic card in future, and I also think having more power is better than less power which may cause getting in trouble in future, am I right?

You are correct, more power is usually better. And, no it won't cause any problems because it has so much power: your psu will ONLY supply the power the board and system need, it does NOT run at 750 or whatever watts all the time it is on.

The GREEN GP650B-OC 650 Watt power supply is based on CWT's high end DSG Series Platform.

Corsair's Professional Series CMPSU-750HX & CMPSU-850HX, now discontinued, used this platform. These power supplies were very highly rated by the majority of reputable power supply review sites.
