That APU is 100W. I would maybe go a little more in case he ever wants to truly crossfire or something but I over did it on my PSU because of the "just in case" factor.

Also, I think this works on that new FM2 socket and is fairly cheap right now. Though I am not sure of those case measurements. It's a large cooler.
