    The trend is less power, more bang.
    Anything over 700 watts is overkill.

    How can you possibly come up with that answer considering the major lack of information given?

    Eacany,

    You need to give the full list of hardware for your comp before you can get a reasonable answer.

          Depends what you need your PSU for. For gaming I would go for 500W. For low end games 400W.

          Just know how much Wattage is needed for your graphics card and make sure they are all compatible with your motherboard.
