Kari Splendid Jun 16, 2004 3,844 1 23,160 Apr 2, 2013 #3 yeah it should be enough, the gtx680 is actually rather good on power efficiency, only furmark pushes it above 200 watts and in TPUs review the highest reading in Crysis2 was 186W... http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/GTX_650_Ti_Boost_Direct_Cu_II/24.html and OCed 3570k won't draw 300 watts either. You could also get a consumption meter like a kill-a-watt to monitor the power draw from the wall socket. It would give you some idea how much stress you're putting on the psu. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882715001 Upvote 0 Downvote
