i see 348W as the recommended psu for my rig on the right > that low ?

based on hardware by chenmingwei, it is about 438W
recommended 488W (minimum), so go higher than this value is good...

I calculated your as well, about the same as what your calculation is...
Your PSU is good...

I googled somewhere saying that 50-60 extra of what you need... but I think it is probably too much... unless in future adding a lot of this like SLI your graphic card??

but my personal way is first choose your prefer PSU rating... for instance 650W.. then multiple by 0.8 (which is 80% efficiency of the PSU rating).. if it is well above your require power supply... then should be safe...

e.g. 650 * 0.8 = 520W

but that is my personal way...
