I have a nearly identical configuration to yours, and when I entered the components into a PC building website, it suggested a 650W PSU would be sufficient, accounting for a potential 10% increase in power usage from games and background applications. Do not utilize the NVIDIA Experience Program, instead manually update drivers and perform a custom installation while deselecting the Experience tab. Then, go to Add/Remove programs to verify that it did not install the program for you.
Despite lacking extensive experience and having a less powerful system, my games run smoothly.
I already possess the water cooler and graphics card; I am currently upgrading the remaining components as my card has failed twice, requiring return to EVGA for RMA processing.
I omitted significant details due to lack of motivation. It requires a refresh rate close to 144Hz to operate effectively on my 1080p monitor with current games.
