Solution Dark Lord of Tech Jan 8, 2014 A good 650w will run those specs. But if you want room for upgrades. A 750w is plenty of power with plenty to spare. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks Power Supply: XFX ProSeries 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($85.99 @ NCIX US) Total: $85.99 (Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)
