The GFX uses around 250 watts max. I've even looked at calculators and it's saying this... Estimated Wattage: 451W http://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/tompac/saved/L6XYcf I think the 600w requirement suggested by the GPU specs is for the entire system. Based on this 650w would be more than enough.

With that logic if I were to crossfire my gfx card I would need 1200w which is just ridiculous. I'm fairly certain the whole system requires 600w, but the gpu only uses around 300w.

Getting a 650w power supply now.

I looked at sourcing the parts differently and it only saves me about $100. Not purchasing them from overseas I just can't be bothered with that. Welcome to Australia, everything is more expensive than it should be.

I may stand corrected. Looking at this PSU now http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=25474 It's modular which means I'll have better cable management and airflow due to saved space.

I don't think that's how it works dude. Pretty sure 650w is ample.

Feel free to move this topic if this is the wrong forum mr mod. Mini sized case http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=wish_lists&wlcId=322319&action=wish_lists Does it all fit and will it work? :S
