titan on a 600w psu?

Solution
I think OP's main question was whether a GTX Titan can run on a 600W PSU because he has the same prebuilt HP system and he wants to add a card. The Titan has no relation to his actual question he's concerned about PSU wattage

Well, maybe you can do it but i wouldn't. If you're going to pay 1.000$ for a card you can but a 100$ supply to keep it working properly. And, by the way, i dont know why you should pay that amount of money for a Titan if you can buy 2xR9 290 and a nice Corsair AX860 for the same price!

I calculated it with eXtreme Power Supply Calculator:

System Type: 1 physical CPU
Motherboard: Regular - Desktop
CPU Socket: Socket LGA 1150
CPU: Intel Core i5-4570 3200 MHz Haswell-DT
CPU Utilization (TDP): 90% TDP
RAM: 2 Sticks DDR3 SDRAM
Video Card 1: NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN

Recommended Wattage: 433 Watts

So it is possible, but i wouldn't recommend it. As I said before, I think there are much better options for the same budget!
