how many W a PSU for non-gaming Debian?



I've heard that for gaming you would want a 600~800W PSU [1]
but how do I know how many W I need for my computer use?
I think the most resource-intense I do would be compiling and
watching multimedia on mpv. [2]

Can you use powertop(1) for this or some other tool or can it
not be measured at the software level? And if it can't, can
you estimate it somehow?

TIA
