This does not change regardless of the number of monitors attached to the graphics card.
I have no problem overprovisioning a PSU a bit. Say 20%.

It will run cooler, quieter, and more efficiently in the middle third of it's range.
A PSU will only use the wattage demanded of it, regardless of it's max capability.
