Ok, so a new power supply is in order. I should also mention that I am soon to be upgrading to a maximus vii hero and i5 4690k, liquid cooling setup as well so I should buy something that will work with that setup plus the card I just got...until I can upgrade again that is...suggestions? There's so much out there to choose from that I get overwhelmed and find myself browsing for hours

The video card is the only thing you have to worry about, for power supply size.

Unless you have something unusual like 6 hard drives in a RAID.
