I'm thinking of upgrading my computer soon and I don't think that my 630W PSU will be able to handle A 780 so I would appreciate if anyone knows what PSU will work with the card.

If I were you, i wouldnt go through the hassle of getting a new psu. 630w is fine, a 760 only takes about 268w under full load. But, if you're really that careful, go for a 750w.

SeaSonic is basically top of the line when it comes to power supplies, they are good quality.

Would something like a 650W be fine too? I don't want to spend over a $100 for a PSU

A 650W will be fine as well, just don't skimp too much on the heart that drives everything in your rig.

No it won't. It will be under terrible load. How would you like to be strangled when running a marathon?:pt1cable: 

You couged up the cash for a graphics card, then you need to cough up the cash to feed it too! You also need to cough up the cash for other components to keep up.

So *cough cough* dude!
