So the 780ti has just been released and as Im about to make a high end lan build I have been wondering would the EVGA Hadron's 500w gold PSU be able to handle the card along with the rest of this system? Any help would be appreciated.

Specs:
Intel Core i7-4770k Processor,
Asus Z87 VI Impact motherboard,
16gb ddr3 RAM,
GTX 780ti Graphics Card,
Seagate 2tb SSHD sata 6gb/s
2x 128gb Sandisk Pulse SSDs (for RAID purposes)

Thermaltake PSU calculator recommends 450W. I guess it's OK?

I wouldn't be so concerned about overclocking the i7, it has a max TDP of about 85 if I recall correctly, that's not going to go much (if any) higher without serious overvolting.

The 780 TI, on the other hand, has no overvolt limit, I think that overclocking that is where you would potentially run into trouble.

In theory you should be fine, it would personally make me a bit too nervous to OC though (in which case you might just wanna get a 780 and OC that, should beat the TI's stock).
