Hi guys! I'm building a new computer.

 

CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Seidon 120M

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97-HD3

RAM: G.Skill Sniper Low Voltage Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

HDD: Toshiba 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

GPU: Gigabyte Radeon R9 290 4GB WINDFORCE Video Card

PSU: ???

 

 

1) So i used an calculator for wattage and the result was 449W, but AMD is saying that you need 650w, so what PSU i must buy now ? 

2) I dont want to invest in some expensive case so which one have better cooling and cable management?
