Not sure watt wattage to use

[GrungyHobo]

Im building a new pc and I'm not sure how much power I need.
Is a corsair 550watt enough?
Intel i5-760
Asus p55
16g ram
Evga gtx460
3x 2tb western digital caviar hd
1x 1tb western digital caviar hd

i think a 550w would be close but maybe a little more to be safe theres a whole bunch of PSU calculators out there newegg has one

Would go for a XFX 550W core edition or corsair CX600. That'd be enough.

Corsair CX 600 should do it!

The CX series are budget units, I'd look for a higher end one.

CX is made by Channel Well. Not a bad unit, but like said CX is budget model.
This is a Seasonic unit. Excellent. Also $50 out the door with another 10 for $40 net ! ! Makes me want to buy one

Go to pcpartpicker.com and choose your components to make the build. It should then give you an estimated wattage usage for the build you have chosen.
