This will give you a rough estimate as to how much power would be required by your setup:

Just google PSU calculator and you can check a few websites and you can get an idea as to how much Wattage would be required. I bought mine based on those reading too. Although 650W was recommended for me, I went with 550W.

According to some PSU calculators, including the one that you sent, the CX 550 should do Just fine. Thank you for the help.

That's good to know and glad I could help.

Although, if you're planning on upgrading the components soon, like GPU, CPU, etc, then you can consider the 650W too, it will give you more headroom for future upgrades.
