Would a 750 watt PSU be good enough for this computer build?
I already know what type of power supply I will need for the case I'm getting but I need to know how much wattage I will need, here are the specs.
-Intel core i7 4770K
-8Gb of DDR3 ram in a dual channel set (2 X 4GB set) clocked at 1866 MHz with a cas latency of 8
-Nvidia GTX 780 (it has 3 fans on it) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N8...
-2TB 7200RPM hard drive
-DVD rom drive
-MSI GD65 motherboard
The case I'm getting (HAF 922) has 4 sets of fans that can be installed to assist with the airflow, and I was planning on installing all the optional fans to make sure the system is properly ventilated
so will 750 watts be good enough or will I need more, I will also make sure to buy the 80 plus gold certified.
I probably am not going to upgrade this any further as many people have told me this build is more than good enough for the following generation of games.
of course with the exception of crysis 3 not running at 60FPS the entire game maxed out, but I don't find myself playing that one until much later.

I would buy at least an 800/850 watt PSU for that build, maybe more if you want to leave room for future upgrades
