Power supply question
Hey guys, so a while back i was on here asking about compatibility for parts i had picked out for a new build. Through the course of a few days i eventually found all the right pieces and was quite pleased. Recently having finally gotten the money together i went back and took a look and made some changes, mainly the biggest difference was my Graphics Card, and now im wondering if the PSU thats currently en route to my house will be enough to support all my equipment, im so glad i think ahead...so i was wondering if you guys could take a look and let me know your best guesses on whether ill be fine or i have to shell out more money to replace a perfectly fine PSU out of plain stupidity for not checking beforehand, thanks.

The power supply is more than adequate.

That is part of the beauty of the 6800 series from AMD. Some may be upset or bothered over the naming but really they are great value and lower power consumption than the 5800 series(and yes I know the 6900 will be the successor to the 5800's, but chronologically the 6800s are a great improvement(and value) in my eyes). I honestly plan to get the same card myself and run it on a 650 corsair power supply too, still torn between hx and tx but in the end either should be plenty of power.
