Yes it will run since it has 28 amps on the +12 volts.

A GTX 660 requires at least 24 amps on the 12v rail so you should be able to run it. I just wouldn't overclock it.

no. a 660 uses 250 to 270watts under full load by itself. depending which card and if it is a superclock version.

lowriderflow :

You are simply wrong the card has one 6 pin PCIe power connector therefore maxing at 150watts and total system load will be in the range you are predicting for the card by itself!
