Is this enough wattage to power my system?

Question is can a XFX CORE EDITION 450W enough to power my system?

Probably, but you are almost pushing it. Don't overclock components too far. Otherwise, that is a great PSU that will be able to handle it.

No overclocking at all no room for it in the power dept. of that PSU.

You should get the XFX 550W , BUT THE 450W should power it.

Get the extra power to keep your system stable.

I was originally going to purchase the XFX 550W 80+ so I guess I'll stick to that?
