Im going to get a GTX 970 ASUS Strix DCUII, I know it will run perfectly with my current PSU but will it run good Overclocked? I have a Full HD 1080p BENQ Monitor.

Here are my specs:
Mobo: Gigabyte Z87x-D3H
cpu: Intel Core i5 4670k
Memory: Kingston 8GB - 1600 Mghz
Storage: Seagate 1TB
GPU: Intel HD 4600 (I recently built my PC so I was just waiting for the 900's to come out.)
PSU: CoolerMaster 625W.

...You could overclock that i5 and your graphics card to the limits and probably still be fine with a 500w unit of good quality.

However, you don't specify the model number of your power supply, which is what the biggest point is. Yeah, that power supply will absolutely keep you covered, it's just good information to include.

Yeah, its fine. CPUs and GPUs are more efficient than they've ever been and I've run more power-hungry components off of a similarly spec'd PSU.
