Hello everyone.

I'm building a new gaming computer and I wanted to know if the power supply I have currently selected is enough. The PSU in question is a Corsair VS650, 650W.

I plan on running a Asus DirectCU II 7950 and an intel i5 3570k with a 2tb HDD and 8gb of ram. I do plan on overclocking both the graphics card and the CPU, will the PSU listed above be able to handle this? If not please recommend one for me to get that will be able to handle it.

That power supply would be fine for what you will be running. The recommended wattage for the 7950 is 500W so you should be fine with that.
