Yo everyone.
Im here, running an almost 2 year old system, which have been really good and solid, but i want some more power.

My current system:
i7-3770
GTX 660 superclocked
1TB HDD
600 watt PSU

It runs pretty solid, but i just wanted to ask whether or not the GTX 780 ti would be able to run smoothly on this system?

Thanks in advance :)

Saying "650 watt" is very nearly meaningless. What's the specific model of PSU?

You need a PSU with at least 42A on the 12v rail, or the 780ti won't start at all, even worst you could damage the card. What brand and model is your PSU?

It's a Raidmax and that PSU would not work with the 780ti. It only has 22A on the 12v rail. You need one with 42A on the 12v rail.
