Different wattage calculators seem to give different results with the same input and most of them overestimate by quite a lot. So in my eyes they're not really reliable and I would suggest using this thread as a basis:

Did you go ti the ._pc part picker_ website???

If you did and the results were less than 500w take a 550w or 500w psu

If the results were more than 500w but less than 600w take a 600w and so on 

SUPERFLOWER - ENERMAX - SEASONIC have the best capacitors in the market. Others like cooler master.........thermaltake are also ok. Go to pc part picker website and put all your components there and you will get the estimated wattege result. If you want tell me and i will find a psu for you.

EVGA  psus are made by SUPERFLOWER 

Cooler master are made by anghans electronics and seasonic

Corsair are made by  channell well electronics, electronics and seasonic

As you can see there is no agreement or disagreement to that .

: ) there are kind of good offers on Focus GX, Core GM as well.

Seasonic Focus GX 550W PRIME ULTRA PLATTINUM

Seasonic Core Gold GM 650

 

I really like the skinflint site to compare prices of different retailers. I think it is a very handy bookmark.

Life is really challenging. I don't always suceed: )

You can find the same Nichicon / NCC capacitors used by pretty much any brand, even presumably bad ones like Aerocool and Chieftec. And if a PSU has Japanese capacitors this doesn't automatically mean that it's good. Neither a 'good' OEM automatically means that a PSU made by them would be good. There a plenty of examples of so-so or straight up bad units from Super Flower and Seasonic and conversely, there a lot of examples of very good units from a plenty of other OEMs, even those you usually don't expect to be a particularly good ones, like Andyson made Aerocool P7.

it's decent, but not up to the level of the earlier mentioned Focus units by @Vejnemojnen or @Juular's Leadex iii, RMx and Prime

 

In this case it's a CWT CSB, comparable in quality to something like a Corsair CXM, Cooler Master Masterwatt or Be Quiet System power 9
