Any of the PSUs you mentioned will handle that system fine. Even a quality 500W unit would be sufficient. I would just go with whichever is cheapest.

The Corsair HX520 would be more than sufficient, as both the HX520 & HX620 are modular and you are not using very many cables, either of these,
with their 5yr warranty, would probably be easier to install.

Good Luck,
Dave:)
