hey there.
I currently have a 600w thermaltake PSU.
My current setup involves a i7 4790k and a gtx 750ti, with 8gb of ram
I want to upgrade my gpu up to a gtx970.
Is my PSU enough to handle my current CPU and the new 970 plus 8 more gb of ram?

A good quality 500 watt PSU can handle your system with a GTX 970. The quality of your Thermaltake may be questionable. What model is it?

According to PCpartpicker, my total system uses about 320 watts.

While it has the required power for your upgrade, it's a lower quality unit and you may want to consider upgrading to a better PSU if you can afford it.

Although its a lower quality, it will still work perfectly fine correct?
