It can run in turbo and is rated for that, but there is little headroom, OCP will kick in at about 210-220 watts.

Next gen PSU will be able to run at ~300 watts.

Great to hear, thanks a lot! In case I want to get something more powerful right away though, regular ATX PSU's come to mind at first. Anything wrong with a single rail Seasonic PSU? I should be able to just connect a PCIe cable to it and use it for the Apollo right?

That's perfectly fine, using a 600W bequiet PSU here. (A PSU's efficiency sweet spot is around 50-60%, so consider that for your choice)
