Nvidia specifies a 500W PSU for a system with a single GTX 560ti; the PSU should have at least 36A on the 12V rails and two 75W 6-pin PCIe power connectors. Amperage on the 12V rails is more important than the total wattage rating of the PSU; most power draw from modern PCs is on the 12V rails. Real world power draw for a 560ti system is not likely to exceed the 319W drawn by this system with a highly OCd, power-hungry i7 965: http://www.guru3d.com/article/gefo [...] i-review/7 The superclocked GPU you are getting will require slightly more power than a stock 560ti. The Seasonic M12II 520W is an excellent PSU; it's 40A on the 12V rails capable of running the above system and has sufficient power overhead for mild OCing. If you want a little more overhead for additional OC, then the XFX Core 550W with 44A on the 12V rail can provide the extra headroom. Another great option if you don't mind waiting for the rebate is the Corsair TX650V2 for $65 after MIR: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139020&Tpk=tx650

Edit: Corrected the specification to 500W for a GTX 560ti and mfr; Nvidia specifies a 550W SPU for the 448 core version of the GTX 560ti.

ocz modular editions make things neet and tidy.

You can get by with a really good 650 watt psu. The SeaSonic X Series X650 Gold is one of the best money can buy. If you ever plan to go
SLI in the future then you might want to consider a 750 watt psu.

They specify a 550W for a GTX560ti 448 Core.

AMD ?

A friend has a similar config with a i7 2600K, i can recommend you a Corsair 600Watts 80Plus CX600V2, only cost $60 and have been running his GTX 560 448-core for more than a year and is very silent...(SeaSonic X650 Gold is nice but also cost around $180)..Plus your 3770K is more efficient consuming only 77W

That way you can save for a Giagabyte UD5 or a bigger SSD like an Crucial m4 256GB
