I would look into a concurrent PSU if I was investing into new components. As it stands, if the PSU was purchased around the same time as the processor, then it should be left alone. You can pick up an efficient, reliably built branded PSU that pumps out 550~650W for your entire built as opposed to working with a near 1KW unit.
