well, 350w enought for you gtx 560ti eats 202w at max load.

Even though it says a minimum of 500w...

Ok but that 7770 only has 1 dvi (I have dual monitors)

you can use dual dvi connector like this

every vendor website state those recommendation for safety purpose.

No trouble mate, we can fix that. Also, the Pentium/7770 idea still includes that 550W PSU you picked out. So here's what I'd get if I were you:

Sapphire VaporX Radeon HD 7770 - $150 (this one has two DVI ports! it's also runs cooler than the other)
Antec BP550 - $50
Intel Pentium G850 - $88

This totals out to $288 before rebates ($273 with rebates), and they all have free shipping. This costs right about what the 560ti + PSU costed, too.

No, no it's not at all. You have to account for the fact that it's probably less than 80% efficient (meaning it'll get 280W at most), and he's got a 65W CPU as well as other components (so we'll round that off at about 90W). Not to mention it's a horrible idea to push your power supply at close to its max load - you could cause it to fail and potentially destroy important bits, like the CPU or GPU.

Thanks i think i'm going to go with those three, going to be a lot more to install but well see how it goes.

I'm looking to actually use the dual monitors not just duplicate the main one. Extended.
