Hello,

I managed to get a used but not abused Palit 780Ti GPU, I used a FSP Hex 600W before I bought it but my friend told me that the PSU may not be enough to handle the card especially since its not true rated (?), so I went ang bought the FSP Aurum 600W 80+ Gold one, I wanted a higher one but it was not available except for the 800W Aerocool Strike X (forgot exact name), I want to probably add 1 more 1TB HDD, 1 250GB SSD and a new 200mm fan, I keep worrying that my PSU may not be enough, can I get any feedback from you guys whether I'm safe in using my current components and after I bought the upgrades I listed?

I'm actually just missing an SSD right now (for OS-only thing) and probably a new 200mm fan (to replace my stock intake fan) to complete my set-up, the other 1TB HDD is not really important

I don't overclock my CPU and GPU (GPU I think came with high than reference one) but I have never "manually" OC my computer.

You should be fine, that card is rated at 250W. You're looking at maybe 15-20W for both those disks you referenced and the fan. Total power draw would probably range from 350-400W. I would only go up to a 750-800W PSU if you added another graphics card.
