Its always good to have some headroom, so your PSU dont run at max. Also since all PSUs get weaker over time (varies with quality), so is it great to not be too close to the limit as that will increase its lifespan.

Check the PSU whitelist in my sig. Most PSUs mentioned here are not in that list...

 

The cheapest I would go on a PSU is the Antec BP550. Made by Delta, super solid inside though not many amps on the 12V rail so avoid super hungry GPUs.
