For a system using a single GeForce GTX 680 graphics card NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 550 Watt or greater system power supply that has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 38 Amps or greater and that has at least two 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors or one 6-pin and one 8-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors depending on brand and model of the graphics card.

The 400 Watt models don't meet the requirement because their maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 33 Amps. They also don't have enough PCI Express supplementary power connectors.

I never said anything of the sort.

The SS-460FL² Active PFC F3 (X-460 Fanless) meets the requirements.

Total Power Supply Wattage is NOT the crucial factor in power supply selection!!! Total Combined Continuous Power/Current Available on the +12V Rail(s) rated @ 45°C - 50°C ambient temperature, is the most important factor.

Thanks everybody
I picked JackNaylorPE solution and got ANTEC HCG620 (seasonic oem)
My watt metre tells me im pulling only 280 watts from wall so is this PSU a overkill or drop in efficiency speacialy when idle?
Should I exchange this to fanless 400? Im not comfortable with "fanless"

THAT PSU HAS COST ME £75 ! Is it even worth it ? ;)
