I've been having stuttering problems in games and the 3dmark score I get is around half of what other people are getting with the same components. I'm wondering if perhaps my PSU is the problem. The Newegg calculator suggests around 1000 watts for this machine, while other calculators suggest around 500, which is a pretty big variance so I'm not sure who to trust. Is 650 Watts enough for this?

Mobo: Asus Z97-AR
CPU: i5-4590
GPU: R9 290x
Memory: 2x 4GB DDR3
