haha 1000 watt. What are you looking to do though. If you want to max out games at 1080 p a 770 is perfect. Wanna play 4k 980 has proved to be good at playing modern games. Wanna play mid level options maybe should look at r9 270x or r9 270 or gtx 750 ti. There are alot of options just message me what you want to do and your price and i could give you some advice :)
