If you are coming from a gtx 650 ti a 770 is already a massive upgrade so for you I wouldn't suggest getting the 780 as it would be a waste of money as the 770 can max almost anything at 1080p anyway. 650W would be fine for either as long as it is a decent brand and has enough pci-e connectors.

What resolution do you use? If you are gaming at 1080p or less I'd get the 770. A good 650w PSU shouldn't have a problem power either card but I'd need the make and model of the PSU to tell you if its any good or not.

While I agree the 770 will max everything out right now already, the 780, having more power and more VRAM, will last much longer into the future than the 770. If you are fine with spending the 350 quid on the 780, I would go for that, since it will last you longer. Otherwise, the 770 is a great choice 
As long as the power supply is of good quality, 650w is more than enough A system running a 780 or 770 will use around 350w MAX at peak load.

Please download SPECCY and copy the first tab then paste it here. If you have a old Intel Core 2 with this 650ti and expect a huge jump in performance with a 780 when trying to play 1080P BF4 set at ultra graphics you will be sorely disappointed.
Thanks for all the help so far. I made a mistake I actually have an OCZ CoreXstream 500w PSU. My CPU is an FX-6300 but I was thinking about overclocking that before buying a new CPU. Im swaying more towards the 770. Will 500W be enough?
And I use 1080p no higher

500w is plenty.

That's a review for the 780 Ti, but ha the 770 on the list showing power consumption.
