That's fine. 150 Watts for the GPU, 87 Watts I think for the processor, allow 100 Watts for everything else and you're talking 337 Watts. That's assuming every single component is running at absolutely full load which is obviously ludicrous, your system will never draw over 300 Watts under normal usage.

Even with overclocking the CPU you have loads of spare amps.
