Iam building my new system in Some days and i have some questions.

When i got to powersuplie Calculator It says that I only meed 392 Watts For my components.

Now I Want to save some money so i am going with a Semi modular Psu From corsair.

Iam planing on upgrading the pc over time wich my first priority Will be Fans and a AIO Liquid Cooler

Wich will be 6 Corsair rgb fans Probably 4×LL120 And 2×LL140

Plus a Elite Accapelix Cooler

Could you tell me how much watts i would need To run this.

The PSU calculator is only really a suggestion, and I would personally recommend you go with something a bit higher than what it says are the absolute minimum needed for peace of mind and for future compatibility with things like those RGB fans. What specs are you planning on running, as that determines what PSU you will need more than just the sum of their TDPs (what the PSU calculators figure out).

-> Moved to Power Supplies

 

You can find power draw for most of the parts in their product pages. Corsair doesn't seem to list it anywhere, but since its not the biggest eater, you probably shouldn't be looking at it too much. Using competitors given numbers, AIO+RGB+6  fans is about 35W.
