Need Help choosing the right PSU

Hi guys 

I'm completely confused about choosing the right PSU and the better quantity of Watt

I'm about to use these components:

Motherboard: ASUS prime z390-a Intel ATX

GPU: NVIDIA Rtx 2060 super 8gb (maybe with OC) 

CPU: Intel i5 9600k (maybe with OC) 

RAM: x2 Crucial Ballistix 8Gb DDR4 3000MHz CL15 (16GB)

Case: it's useless to specify the case but it has 4 RGB Fans. x2 USB port 2.0 / x1 USB port 3.0

Don't have any DVD or something like that

My first choise was an Aerocool lux 750w which have a great review on Amazon but not that much on other forums 

So pleas, help me somehow ?

With this build, you really have no reason to go up to 750W. Couple of questions: What is your budget, what country are you in, and do you have a manufacturer preference?

I won't go higher than 80€ honestly 

I live in Italy so € would be the currency

And I don't have any manufacture preference but a modular/semi modular would be better 

And what if in a future I want to upgrade my i5 9600k to a nice i7? 

And one more thing, I think that I'm gonna Overclock the cpu and also the gpu. Is it gonna need more Watt?

Okay, in order to keep it at/below 80€, you best bet would be an 80+ Bronze, if you are wanting a modular. Here is a Seasonic for 80.53€:

Is it enough also to Overclock my 2060 super and the processor?

It should be fine for pretty decent overclocking. It looks like you should have about 150-ish watts left over.

So, just to know, which is a pc build that need a 750w psu? In a future (using a corsair 650w) can I upgrade my Intel? Can I add stuff like Ssd M.2 and some more stuff like that?

Just guessing, but I would assume they wanted a decent PSU, not a decade old, low end, loud PSU that lacks protections.

Yeah, you should be fine. Most builds that need a ton of power have 2 GPUs and a high end CPU. My build uses slightly over half of my PSU, and mine is 850w.

I didn't realize that PSU was that old/bad. I was looking for one that was in their budget. The Corsair is much better.
