450 watt is the minimum for your gpu so you would be just fine. The tx series is not modular.

 

[Kyrone]

meh. with a full tower top mounted psu case I decided modular aint a biggie, plus I hear modular technology can lead to degragaded cords if youre using them a lot, and a higher chance of burnouts, hence why corsair does not do modular.

so you really think 650w will be enuf? i thought the cpu took enuf power? its only 10 bucks for 100 more watts but im also tryn to be energy effecient and eco friendly

 

[Hefemeister]

Well 650watss is plenty. As for energy efficient you would have a 1,000,000watt psu and it would only draw the amount of power that your machine requires so it would not use any more power than a 650watt would.

for $10 more I would go for the 750tx
or
since modular is not an issue now I would also consider this psu as well.
