yeah its fine... just make sure all the power cables are plugged in... if not... its not getting enough power 
That PSU is way overkill for that card alone. I have a thermaltake toughpower 650, and it powers 2 9800 gtx in SLi with no prob, and they consume way wore that 1 GX2. You've even got 100 watts more, and probably more amperage. Try another solution 
If your STILL worried, try buying a voltage monitoring tool like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6882715001. It'll prove that your not consuming close to what that PSU can do. Oh, and your PSU is supplying a total of 60 amps across the rails, see here: http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/Prod [...] 64&ID=1502.
