This page breaks down the requirements for 3D printer power supplies very nicely: [duet3d.dozuki.com]

That sounds about right, but how big is the bed? Do you intend to print ABS? If so, a 210W heater is good for about a 200x200 mm bed. If the bed is larger than that you may be waiting a long time for it to heat up. If you think you might add a second extruder, better throw in another 50W for another heater and motor.
Are you going to be running LEDs from the power supply, too? I have about 20W of LEDs that are on at any given time...
It is best to not run power supplies (or anything else) at the limit of their ratings if you want them to last.
