currently I have the antec 550w and I'm looking at the following ad on craigslist for 320 dollars:

- intel i5 2500K LGA-1155 quad core processor (Sandybridge) (epic processor for gaming!)
- Asus P8Z77-V LX LGA-1155 Motherboard
- G.Skill Ripjaws X 8GB DDR3 1866 CL9 Memory Kit (2 x 4GB sticks)
- Diablotek 675w UL series Power Supply
- Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO Heatsink and fan
- Tube of Tuniq TX-4 premium thermal compound

Numerically at least the 675w is better than my PSU but antec is certainly a better brand.

Could this 675w PSU power high-end GPU's, like the gtx 770?

I wouldn't pay more than $200 for those craigslist parts and I'd have to see them working first. They are used, cpu probably been overclocked, and they have been attached to a diablotek PSU which would make me worry. If you can afford the newegg combo I'd go that way.
