Is this the build Dolar pm'd you? I may have been looking at the wrong one earlier when comparing mine to his xD

If it is, we actually have VERY similar builds now... Mine's just going to be cheaper, and will have a bigger PSU more capable of OC'ing.

Once again, I've had no issues with a 500-550w power supply at load with a 7970 & 680.
And you can overclock.
You cannot contest this point.

I had a 500w PSU that i used in my pc for awhile. With a 2500k @ 4.5 & a 570@ 900

It works, But you run the risk of blowing up everything in your computer.

Why not spend the extra $30 and get something that will give you peice of mind.

Besides you have to figure in cap aging /etc.
