Yea JD, sincerely urge you to upgrade your PSU, I suggest the TX-750, its non-modular, but great PSU. Anything above this will probably an overkill, as TDPs are falling and rest assured this investment will be future proof for at least 4-5 years.

Also look at the Seasonic alternatives, I am not sure who the OEM for XFX is, if Seasonic go for it.

^^ True dat!!

You want a good PSU...buy an Antec...should have seen it running like a pro thru our LN2 OC session. The 750 and 850 are the bomb...HCP series.

20K would be good. 15K would be awesome. But this may be a dream.:-/

Now a days the cpu and also gpu are becoming more and more power efficient (more performance at less power). So a 600-700watt gold or silver psu would be enough to run a top notch single gpu and cpu with it . The psu above 1kwatt are only for enthusiast user (running quad gpu oced cpu setups). Untill user can't run more than quad gpu setup (desktop purpose) they won't need more than 1.2kwatt psu.

After the price drop every where the 6970 may be available like at >15k and 580 at>20k or so in india soon (like the 5870 and 480 did last year)
