yes it will be completely fine, however since you never want to skimp money on a psu, and even thought it isnt completely necessary i would really recommend this psu:

I run my own indie game company called Color Dragon Studios where we are currently making a 2d platformer game called Small Earth.

even if its 80+ bronze certified?

The 80 plus certification has to do with the efficiency of the unit and not how much power it can supply.

Technically it does have something to do with it. The higher the 80 plus certification it has, the higher % of the listed wattage it can supply. Efficiency in the case of power supplies, means how efficiently it converts power from the wall to power your components can use. 80 plus means it will, at leas,t be able to supply 80% of the listed wattage (very roughly, there are other factors going into the 80 plus standard these days).

 

(Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, this is just how I understood the whole thing)

No, that's not how it works. A 400w psu should be able to deliver 400w regardless of efficiency. It will just draw more from the wall with lower efficiency. An 80% efficient 400w psu will supply 400w and draw 500w from the wall.

Ah I see, then I clearly misunderstood things. Thanks for clearing that up.
