Hi guys,

My new R9 295X2 should be here in two days. Everything I have been reading on the R9 295X2 suggests the following:

For an MSI X99 motherboard, 5930k, H100i cooler, 16GB DDR4 RAM, and my hard drives, all these combined can take a 750W PSU at the minimum, recommended is 850W, 900W, and 1000W.

I have an Antec High-Current Gamer 900W PSU, designed for high end systems. My question is, will this will handle the R9 295X2? I will also have my CPU overclocked to 4.2GHZ.

Thank you.

This is even while my system will be overclocked?

Grabbing a new PSU this week won't be an issue if it comes down to it, but like most of us with a non modular PSU, taking it out can be a bit "painful".
