Hey, i was curious how big my Power Supply needs to be to run all of this. Mind you i will slightly O.C this. I currently running a OCZ ZT series 650W Bronze Certified, will this be enough?
 


Hi - Yes a good quality 650w PSU is sufficient for your build. The only concern you should have is that
particular model failed HardOcp's test. Keep in mind HardOcp drives PSU's very hard in their tests.

Review their testing:

I would give it a go as is, but put $$ aside to upgrade in the near future.
