600W should be plenty, though if youre thinking of going for another card in crossfire later you might want to look at 750, anything by Corsair, Zalman, Bequiet or Coolermaster

This is 550W and should be fine, depends how much you want to spend though

I would personally be looking at something in the 600W range, from any of the brands mentioned above by thrifty.

If you are going for a dual card setup, then a PSU around 850W would be good.

do you know if any of the above are truly modular?

These are all modular. If by 'truly' you mean 100% modular, then no I don't think they are. I don't think you need 100% modular PSU anyway.

The Corsair 620w is a good PSU, running one in my system. Clicky
Only Part which is not modular is the ATX connector, PCI-E & CPU power.
