honestly the EVGA 850w G3 isn't too much more expensive should I just go with that?

What are your system specs?

 

All three are top-tier products. The Seasonic Prime is the best, but probably unnecessary.

if its on Tier 1 thats ideally what you want. You will be fine for gaming on anything really up to Tier 3.

Depends, what spec are the parts, care to give a list?

 

But in general no, any of those should be fine, there's a link in my sig to a PSU thread where you can look up the tiers of PSUs.

I'd say 650W might be good enough, but I prefer the PSU to be silent or at least not spin up all the time.. so I'd go with 850, it also gives you a bit of wiggle room too. If you already have an 850W g3, then that would be good enough for sure IMO.

650W is fine. Get the cheapest one of those.
