by the numbers a 450 watt PSU should be good enough.
I'd advise NOT overclocking the Vega 56 or modifying the bios with that power supply though.
When a PSU is pushed too hard, to the point of failure, it can take out motherboards or graphics cards with it.
but say between 50-100 watts for your motherboard and CPU most likely, then a couple hundred for Vega at default settings. Add in 10 or 20 more watts for hard-drives and that's about it. Probably shy of 350 watts of draw in stock balanced settings in game.
