500w for a single gpu, 750w if you intend to get a second. It may be worthwhile to get a 600w/850w psu in case future cards aren't as efficient as the 900 series.

Or 600w for a single and 850w if you may go SLI/XFIRE (Taking into account that future cards may not be as efficient). 

for 970's you can get three under 500 w but for three 600w is reccomended
