how much power supply will i need?

is 1200w too much or should i get 1050 or even 900?

only 1 GTX 680 and one monitor

Really you could get by with 750W since you are running a single card. Regardless, I would pick a different brand of power supply.

This one should suffice

550 watts is what's reccomended for a system with a GTX680
650w would be overkill for your specs

Even with overclocking
