In my computer build i have 2 options and i need your guy's help

i need to decide between a:

i5-6400+Radeon RX 460+120GB SSD

and a:

i3-6100+Radeon RX 470

PS will a 400w supply be enough i checked on a power supply calculator and it said that i need about 260 but 500 is preferable . but it might go over my budget so i want to know if it really is necessary.

Thank you for your time xD

Option 1. 400w is fine, but what psu are you looking at?

It vastly depends on the games you want to play, but most games I'd say the 470 one will be better. Although if you do go for it wait until the (GTX) 1050 or 1050ti comes out as AMD might reduce the prices of their 470s.

When will they release it? and where because it might take a lot of time till it comes to my country and till then its just not worth waiting

the psu is coming with the case "Cooler master cmp-350" is it any good or should i consider taking another case and a different power supply?

Psus that come with the case are almost always very bad. I suggest getting a corsair cx450m. It's relatively cheap and pretty decent quality.
