I'm building a new system and I was wondering woulxd this psu handle. I'm gonnabe gettimg the amd fx 8350 not gonna oc tho and getting a 8xxx series card when its comes out. Not overclockimg either. Would that psu handle everything?

If you don't OC then you should probably be good to go, but we don't know about power requirements for the next gen. AMD claimed the 7000 series would be super low-power (170w TDP for 7970 IIRC) and instead it came out on the high end of things. They might go high 200s with the 9970 just to make sure they have the undisputed champion of GPUs over the 780/Titan.
