only one doubt, the smps you mentioned is the best in market, but don't you think it would be overkill for that processor and graphic card?

Na 450W is a bare minimum in my opinion. And What with best in market? You can get Corsair series of similar rating also. Just dont go EL Cheapo

I use a Sapphire R7 250 1GB DDR5 and Intel G3230 and 2 HDD. My SMPS is Frontech 400W that came free bundle with El Cheapo Rs1000 Frontech Case. Antec VP450 is for people who get GTX 750ti kind of PCs . I am not saying its bad, its just overkill.

get R7 250X or radeon 7770(250X is just rehashed version of 7770),spending few hundred less on R7 250 is not worth it.

True that.. and the difference between the R7 250 vs R7 250X is pretty huge.
