Hi, I want to buy a GTX 770 but i don't know if i need to upgrade my power supply for it i hope not because the card itself is expensive enough for me, i currently have a 600 watt power supply and well heres the link to the computer i bought. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1688...

To be honest it probably has a cheap, no name brand power supply that I would not trust to put out its rated wattage. You see a name brand or a model number on the sticker on the side of the PSU? Or an amp rating specifically 12v amps?

Yeah I found its 80 Plus certification. Looks like 40 amps on the 12v rail making it a 'real' 500w power supply. If it can put out what it's rated and I doubt that. It's made by a company called and no joke here : HAPPY MULTI-WEALTH TECHNOLOGIES. In my mind that translates to giant Chinese firecracker brand number 1!

In other words, I would not trust it to charge a battery. I certainly would not try loading it with a GTX 770.

Glad to help! :) 

Stick with Corsair, Seasonic, PC Power and Cooling, XFX, Silverstone, Enermax, OCZ, Antec or the high efficiency Rosewill units for qualiy. I may have to add EVGA to the list as they are doing quite well with their new models as well.

Best deal I see on Canadian newegg is the Corsair CX600M. I don't like the regular CX series as they cut corners by using cheap Chinese made capacitors in them but the CXM in addition to being modular uses high quality Japanese capacitors.

$75 with a $20.00 USD rebate.

The Capstone is a very good unit. You don't need the extra power but it won't hurt anything.
