yeah you should be able to run this as the psu requirments are good on the geforce site they say that we need a 600w psu and Supplementary Power Connectors One 8-pin and one 6-pin....but you have to take care of other hardwares like hdds and rams dvd roms etc..if you dont know how much power your pc will need try this psu calculator

Yes. It has plenty of power and 4 PCI-Express Connector 6+2-Pin. Great decision on the power supply purchase. What were you running on it before?

i have also searched for it and everyone has connected a 6-pins and a 8pins connectors to the graphics card (780ti) so you can get 8pins to 6 pins converter or adapter.
