Hello everyone,

I'm thinking about upgrading my GTX 560Ti and I'm pretty sure that GTX 780 from Gigabyte is the best for me.
Now, my biggest concern is the power consumption.
I have a 600W power supply from SeaSonic and I need to be sure that the gpu will not crash.
I've already checked it on the eXtreme Power Supply Calculator site and it said that I have about 50W free.

My specs:
Intel I7 3770
4 x 4GB Ram @ 1600MHz
3 x 7200RPM HDDs
SeaSonic SS-600ET (600W)


So, do you think that the GPU will work with no problem? Even at 100% usege?
 
Solution
A gtx 780 is recommended
-575W
-42A on the +12v rail
-one 6pin plus one 8pin connector.

The Seasonic SS-600ET has
-600W
-46A on the +12v rail
-one 6pin plus one 8pin connector.

You should be good to go.
