You still didn't provide the full specefication. Would you mind to tell us more about your motherboard and rams which you're using.

You pc will consume 550W. For 1080 and i5 550-650W will be suffice. he i7 won't draw more than 160W on overclocks, a GTX1080 tops around 220W.

It should use around 350-400W, but you'll definitely want a PSU that's stronger than that since the output wattage of a PSU fluctuates

Choosing power supply for system, one must also consider other component attached to it. So choosing a voltage that is not higher than the components will be best and suitable.
