Since you already own the psu, and it has been presumably working, go ahead and try it.
If it does not deliver sufficient power the most likely symptom will be artifacts from the gpu showing up on the monitor. Or, the need to lower the gpu clock.
So long as the psu does not fail under load, no harm will be done.
