For a system running a single GeForce GTX 580 graphics card NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 600 Watt or greater power supply with a combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 42 Amps or greater and with at least one 6-pin and one 8-pin PCI-Express supplementary power connectors.

Your Thermaltake Toughpower XT Series 675W (TPX-675M) power supply unit, with its +12 Volt continuous current rating of 56 Amps and with two 6-pin PCI-E connectors and two 6+2-pin PCI-E connectors, more than meets the minimum requirement.

There is even some reserve capacity available that can be used for overclocking of the CPU and GPU if you want to attempt it.
