The system will use only 350w so it doesn't matter.

@ferret63 The 650 W unit is fine but I would recommend getting the 750 W unit, as the difference in price is minor and you will gain headroom for future upgrades. Also if you keep the actual load lower than let's say 75 percent (differs with every brand), you will likely get a long lifespan out of it. Also, should you overclock at some point in the future, more is always better.

But the price is a lot more, I don’t know where you saw the prices.
