PowerSupply advice needed.
I'm going to be building a new PC soon and I'm looking at getting the following stuff.What I was wondering is what should I be looking for as far as Watt's go a 750 or 850 I also game a bit and when the 570 card is outdated jump to something else and know that I will have some extra power to spare without going into extreme overkill.
1 Harddrive 2 DVD Drives 1 card that use USB Plug's and Header's to connect everything and for a case I will be using a Corsair 600T Newegg.ca - Intel Core i7-2600 Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost) 4 x 256KB L2 Cache 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor BX80623I72600 Newegg.ca - ASUS P8Z68-V PRO LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS Buy the ASUS GeForce GTX 570 DirectCUII 1280MB GDDR5 PCIe at TigerDirect.ca |

750 watts, 12 volt current rating for the card, should do it since you only game "a bit".
That will still give you plenty of extra power when you upgrade later on with a new card.

A system with a GTX570 only needs an average quality 550 watt PSU, so a 750 high quality unit is more than enough.
