You might as well go for this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006

Its got 60A 12V single rail and its $15 cheaper than the 650W TX. Go Corsair. You wont regret it.

Go Corsair GO! Do it! GO! You know you want to. Just go buy it, will ya.

*edit* LOL i mixed US Newegg and CA Newegg! Its $12 more. Thats nothing. Nothing at all. Go get it!

Lol ouch....Just because we don't own the exact parts doesn't mean we don't know what we're talking about...We know how much power each one takes, and if all else fails, you could do it yourself with a PSU calculator...

Ewwwww... Avoid.

Anyway, a good 550W PSU would power your setup just fine. You can go up to about 650W and have a good amount of overhead and still not be all that much overkill. The Antec EA650 is a very nice PSU and a good price ATM at newegg. The Corsair vx550 and tx650 are also nice choices and are ~$100 AR at the egg.
