It might be enough, but that's a poor quality PSU, so I would stay away from it. What is your budget for the PSU and what country do you live in?

Budget is not a problem, the problems is that the pc was built for me and was supposed to have a 800w psu. Wasnt til i got home and inspected the inside that i noticed it was a 650w psu.

Hoping it would be ok as its gonna be a pain to return it and get it sorted.

You should be fine. The Corsair VS series is equivalent to the Corsair CX series, which is a tier 3 brand (see here: https://community.newegg.com/eggxpert/computer_hardware/f/135081/t/45344.aspx)

I'm assuming you're going with the VS series because you don't live in the US, right? It uses an input of 220-240v, rather than 120v.

Sorry to hear that 🙁
Try to get a PSU from Antec, Seasonic, XFX, EVGA (P2 and G2 units only) or Corsair (AX, TX, and HX units only).

Both of those PSUs use Chinese capacitors that can lead to heat issues and an early death for the PSU.

Forgot to mention i live in the UK.

I was just going by the list. I have a cx500 that still works after 8 years. I just wasn't unduly worried because 650w is at least 100w more than what's needed to run a 770.

But I agree, there are better options. Try to pick a psu from the top 2 tiers from the link I gave.

The VS Series isn't Haswell compatible.
