At least a 600-700 watt.

You can power that with a 400w unit, let alone nearly doubling it.

700W is way overkill.

 

I'd shoot for a 550W unit personally, as that will most definitely hold out for future upgrades pretty nicely.

If it was an Nvidia card, I'd agree but this is AMD which always need a bit more to be stable.

A bit, like 20 watts

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.

You can power that with even a 440w. My girlfriend has a GTX 970, with a 4690. barely running off of a 440w. I wouldn't recommend it, I would shoot for a 550 at least to give yourself more head room for upgrades.

I've got an i7 and titan off a 650 watt, there's no reason to go above 550 unless you get a good deal.

RX 570 = 150W
i5 7500 = 75W
Everything else = 25W.

So, maybe up to 250W power draw under heavy load for a system like that. Most decent quality PSUs start at around 450W, so I would look in to some units such as the Corsair CX450M, Bitfenix Formula 450W, Be Quiet Pure Power 10/11 400W (if you're in Europe), etc.

If you're in the USA you can currently get the CX450M for $30 after a $20 rebate ($50).

minimum: a good 300-350W, since that doesn't exist (no more), you have to go for a 400-450W minimum.

Depending on regions, these might not be available:
be quiet Pure Power 10 or 11, Bitfenix Formula

 

Do you plan on buying any of those components? Because if you get it new: Don't. There are better parts for the money...

Wait, what, why?!

Sorry, but could you stop with this Nonsense and FUD?!

Because you clearly don't know what you're talking about and have no experience with similar cards.

 

I have an RX480/8GiB and even in a HEDT LGA2011 System -> I7-3930K, I only measured around 350W Power Consumption. And that's with the efficiency of the PSU. WIthout its a lot less.
