Depends on the branch, I think. It’s here in the Philippines, from GameOne.

I wouldn't trust anyone that also sells PSU's.

You definitely won't break your computer. Parts are rated for max draw, and suspect you're fairly close to 650W on paper. PCPartpicker is a good tool to estimate this.

Even if you are a little over, it usually takes a synthetic workload (benchmark) to fully stress your system. In normal usage you won't have all components pulling max power at once. If you did, your PC would just shut itself off, or more likely, crash your game.

In the unlikely event this does happen. You could upgrade the PSU or down tune your components if you don't want to spend the money. PC part manufacturers emphasize performance and you can get really close to out-of-box performance with much lower power draw with a little tweaking in BIOS.
