I would suggest a 600 watt psu or more

why?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

(Link to 600W EVGA BR)

No, no, no.

 

Because you want a good quality PSU first, Wattage is not that relevant.

You don't want a high(er) Wattage PSU with lower quality like the one you've recommended.

 

A 400-450W PSU (be quiet Pure Power 11, 400W, Corsair CX 450) is preferrable to the 600W EVGA BR and the 550W Versions are only slightly more and also preferrable for various reasons.

What whining exactly is??

Corsair RMx series are very good. No whining, no noise. Silent as a sleeping lamb.

Prime Ultra 550w fits in the budget:
https://www.1a.lt/kompiuteriu_komponentai_tinklo_produktai/korpusas_ir_ausinimas/maitinimo_blokai/seasonic_prime_ultra_550w_gold    (is this the one with updated, more silent fan?)
 

The non-Ultra Primes start at 650W and are out of his budget. 

At that price point, Straight Power 11 650w/750w is also an option.

650W Whisper M for €92 is a good choice too I guess..
