is my 600W PSU good enough for GeForce 970/980?
I have a OCZ600SXS PSU:

According to its spec it has 600W output, though it's not a "80 plus" PSU or so as far as I understand.
I'm wondering if this somewhat old PSU is good enough for the new generation of high end nvidia cards 970/980, or could it be a problem and not work or reduce performance?

Thanks.

It's not the greatest power supply , but it can power a single 970 or 980.

A 600w PSU is more than enough for a 970 or 980.
