HI, im new in these parts!

GPU: AMD RADEON POWERCOLOR HD 7950 3GB
CPU: AMD FX 4300 black edition (3.8Ghz)
MOTHERBOARD: ASRock 960GM/U3S3 FX Micro ATX AM3+ Motherboard
RAM: 2x4GB DDR3
an old 250GB sata disk
1 dvd/cd drive

Yes the Corsair will have plenty of Amps on the 12v rail, and the quoted Wattage from the manufacturers are given with quite a bit of headroom. You could run a Titan on a good quality, efficient 500W PSU. The 500W Corsair should be fine, but like I said if you can afford it, get the 600 just because it won't have to work as hard to run your system.

i checked some sites with PWsupply calculators and some came 700W, then some 400W.
I'm worried about the fact that my GPU need a minimum of 500W and i know i have to look at the 12V@(number).
So the Corsair has a decent 12V@(number) thingy support? (i have no idea how its called)
