■PCI Express® based PC is required with one X16 lane graphics slot available on the motherboard
■500W (or greater) power supply with two 75W 6-pin PCI Express power connectors recommended
■750W (or greater) power supply with four 75W 6-pin PCI Express power connectors recommended for AMD CrossFire™ technology

for a single card i'd get a 600 and if you update later to 2 cards then 800 will be fine
 
You'll be comfy with a 650w psu for that setup. Will have headroom for overclocking both cpu and gpu too. But make sure you get a known quality brand like silverstone, corsair, seasonic with a good efficiency rating
 
must agree with above tbh, a cheap 800 might not be as good in loads of ways than a branded 500/600 like corsair

i use a corsaid 600cx and also a cit 750 and a huntley 650 and a 500 BeQuiet
