    Is that full atx mobo? What is the purpose of build?
    Do you want a decent wattage psu in case you add a gpu later?
    What case? Fans? You looking for low volume, low temps? Etc.

    no gaming. it's a full atx board. in a cooler master elite 330 case.
    won't be adding a gpu. just a general purpose pc but don't play games. might do a mild overclock on memory but no overclocking other than that.

    also will have a blu ray writer
    blu ray drive
    and two sata drives

    Did you put the parts on a build in pcpartpicker to see the wattage requirements?
    You won't need much. I soul d always go modular as tidier, easier and simpler to replace if it blows.
    Up to you if you want a premium one with silent mode etc. Buy a decent brand like seasonic. I always go gold as a minimum, not bronze etc as more heat and less cost efficient but you won't burn elex without a gpu.
    If you really wanna get excited you cnz check the energy efficiency curve as max efficiency is usually 50% of max psu can push out.
    I like buying components used but I wouldn't for a psu.
