What would be a good PSU for the following config ?

AMD FX 6300
2 1TB Seagate HDDs
1 ODD
1 8GB Kingston Fury DDR3 1866 MHz and
a RX480 8GB

I think Seasonic 520 should be enough but don't wanna take a risk as the rig is of a friend. Thanks in advance for suggestions

Your Load Wattage is 320w and your recommended PSU Wattage is 370w.
Your recommended UPS Rating is 650VA.

So Seasonic S12II 520w @ 5k is more than enough.

Thanks guys. I wasnt sure & hence thought of second opinion as I don't know many good quality 650W or 750W PSUs. I'll recommend him Seasonic S12II 520W.
