gtx 650 running on a Corsair RM 450W 80+

So I got this 450w psu just recently. Now I want to upgrade graphics to a gtx 650 and the question becomes, will 450w be enough.

Other Components are:
intel i3 (ivy)
kingston hyperx ssd
stock cpu cooler and 4 other fans

Easily.

Yes more than enough the GTX650 is only a 64w card (max power) according to nvidia.

That is more than enough, Tom recently did a video in which he ran a GTX 780 Ti with an i5 4670k off the RM450 and even that was fine (though it didn't have a lot of headroom to spare).

Yeah it will be on the edge matey but youll get by. Id be telling you to buy the 550 if you hadnt already got it though
