The forums are now back up after emergency maintenance. We believe the issues from the weekend should now be resolved but we'll be monitoring for any further problems. Thank you for your patience!
It's not a great PSU, I recommend you upgrade to this if you can afford to do so. It'll allow you to OC as much as you'd like, too. You current PSU SHOULD work, but it's not in the recommended specs and it'd push it pretty far.
It should be enough if you don't overclock, but which Thermaltake is it?
Considering you're getting an expensive high end GPU it's very important that you have a good quality PSU to give it clean and stable power.

As long as the PSU has a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 37 Amps or greater and has at least one 6-pin and one 8-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors it should be sufficient.
