Is my PSU good enough for 1070 and 970?

[Forsete]

Recently i bought myself an MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X, which replaced my MSI GTX 970 Gaming.
The 1070 is a beast (Obviously), but i still have my 970 laying around doing nothing.

I was wondering wether my PSU would be good enough to have both the 1070 and the 970 build into it, with the 970 as a dedicated PhysX card.

My PSU is the Cooler Master G650M. It has the needed power connectors so that won't be a problem. I'm rather worried wether it will deliver enough wattage.

My further specs are:

i5 4690K
2x8 GB of corsair vengeance @ 1600MHz
B85-G43 Gaming motherboard
1x 850 Evo SSD 250Gb
4x 1 Tb HDD @ 7200 RPM
5x 120mm casefans
1x 140mm casefan
Be Quiet Shadow Rock Topflow sr1

I have a 12 LED strip installed aswell, not sure if it's worth mentioning.

Thank you in advace

It'll have sufficient power, but it's not worth it these days. Nvidia has moved on from Physx and now uses GameWorks. Whilst this incorporates Physx, it's not the sole contributor and there no such thing as a dedicated GameWorks card.

Personally, I'd sell the GTX 970 while there's still a market for it.

I wouldn't. Your PSU isn't bad but I wouldn't like to push those Chinese caps (rated to 85° C). 650w would be just enough if you clocked your 1070 to match the FE stock speeds and left everything else at stock, but again, I wouldn't recommend it.

Are you sure? I contacted Nvidia about this and they said that it would have sufficient power.

Also, i am gonna sell it, a friend is interested though he still researching a lot so while i still own the card, might aswell use it.

It will have sufficient power, never said otherwise.
