Can my PSU handle a 670/680?
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Alright, I'm getting either a 670 or a 680, but I'm unsure my power supply can handle it.
I'm using this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=17-341-...
I've done some research online, but I'm new to building and had a hard time deciphering the tech specs. It seems like it could support a 670 or 680, but I want to be absolutely sure. I'm running a Core i5-3570k with this rig.
Thank-you very much.

Nvidia recommends 38A available on the 12V rails...that PSU has 2 12V rails with 25A available on each for a total of 50. You're good.Rails are typically not additive. Table says 504W on 12V rails: http://www.ocztechnology.com/images/awards/mxsp_wattage...
504/12=42A So it is OK.
Best solution
The OCZ is actually a better unit than the Corsair CX. The CX line is Corsair's budget line.
The OCZ is plenty for any single graphics card you want to run and is actually plenty to run a system with a GTX 690 in it.

So don't worry a bit about it and overclock all you want.

Rails are not additive. But you still have enough to power the card.
