I would advise getting a 550W PSU, don't want to run the risk of breaking any components etc

I would do with what it says and maybe a little more for future proof planning upgrades?
Should only be around 50-60?

I would completely agree with Zach on this one. I would rather just buy a new PSU for around 20 and be safe rather than sorry

Should be absolutely fine. A system like yours wont use anywhere near 450w anyway, even with a 260X.
