yea will be fine and have some head room for oc. system will use approx 250-300 overclocked and card will use 250-300 overclocked so at worst you will have 150 head room on psu witch is the figure i try to leave myself when selecting a psu. if you want to SLI in the future then you may want to look towards something around the 900w or over range if you intend on overclocking. i have run 780's oc'ed and cpu oc'ed on my 875w for a bench run but i believe im still within the 875w range just not much head room
