Hmm... this PSU is borderline, in my opinion. There is only one +12V rail, and although it can handle 40A, your GPU alone requires 30A; and may require it to be dedicated. Still, this PSU can handle the GPU load, but does it have an auxillary GPU cable? Also, this would leave only 10A for everything else, which may or may not be enough, depending on how crazy you get with your system.

That is the manufacturers reccomended 12v ouput for the system with the card in it.
The card alone use's around 13a

Depending on the manufacturer, the power reccomendation can be as low as 24 amps
