As in the title;

Current GPU is GeForce GTX 760 but I'll be adding a GeForce GTX780 Superclocked so it'll have to deal with both of these too.

Or will I need to get a different PSU? If so, which would be appropriate?

Thanks!
 
Solution
Yes, the single highest draw on the power supply is the graphics card. The minimum system requirement for a GTX 780 IS 600 WATTS and 42 Amps on a single 12V rail. I would bump up the power supply to at least 650 watts.

Alright, so it should be fine with the 760 until I add the 780, then I'll need to bump up the PSU?

Oh, really? I didn't realise that. I'll probably look for a 980 in that case. :)
