I was wondering if a 550w power supply is to much. my total wattage is around 300. Thanks

If that's your max total wattage then 550w is more than enough.

Here's a nice one made by SEASONIC.

It's always recomendable to get a bigger PSU than what you really need. That way you won't be living on the edge and have headroom for future upgrades.
