UMAX power supplies do not have a good reputation. Take a look at the Power Supply Tier List and search for a deal on a Tier 1 or Tier 2A power supply. Those power supplies will deliver the rated power and will power your rig with no problems.

650 W is fine. The quality of the PSU, however, is not unless this is a PC you're building for someone you dislike.

It's unlikely you need 16 GB of RAM, so if you can't afford to add a reputable power supply, you can cut back to 8 GB. But whatever you get, power it with a safe, dependable PSU - a PSU is the last place to cut corners.

Also, it appears you're choosing a laptop hard drive, which is a bad choice. Hard drives intended for laptops tend to be slower, but consume less power, and are made to be more resistant to vibration. And will almost always be more expensive than a 3.5" drive of the same quality, capacity and speed.

Everybody that answered, said "don't buy a UMAX power supply", but yet you ask a question about a UMAX power supply.

A SeaSonic power supply is a MUCH better choice.
