Power Supply Unit, really needs 850W+?

It doesn't work perfectly since I every now and then get a message that some usb-device has suffered a Power outage

Hard to believe these USB devices would consume so much power.

Hi every one,

 

The AVSIM hardware guide says that a power supply unit of 850W is a minimum. However, recently power supply units have gone through a price hike. So I want to know if a 650W power supply unit would work fine.

 

Proposed specs are:

i7 3770K [email protected]

GTX 660

ASRock Z77 Extreme 4

2TB HDD

16GB Ram

 

Thank you

Using this http://www.extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine calculator, you need a minimum of 371W.  Round up to 650 and you will way more than you need.
