Hello there, im planning on switching my 580 for a 780 and I wanted to make sure everything would be fine, especially my PSU.

Here's my current build :

Intel i7 2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz
Gigabyte GA-P67X-UD3-B3 Motherboard
Zotac GTX 580 1.5G
8GB of RAM, (2x4GB)
250GB Samsung SSD 840 EVO
+ Seagate Barracuda ST31000524AS 1TB 7200 RPM 1TO
SeaSonic S12II 620W 80+ Bronze Certified PSU
Optical Drive: LG GH24NS95 DVD/CD Writer
Windows 7 64-bit

So the idea here is to swap the 580 for this : http://www.ncix.com/detail/msi-geforce-gtx-780-oc-45-86...

Is my PSU strong enough and/or do you see some problem that could occur?

Thanks

780 is more or less pretty much the same as 580 in terms of power consumption. but it will be a huge performance upgrade though
