Would a Corsair TX 750W v2 be good enough for me:

Intel core i7 2600k

Nvidia Geforce GTX 570

8GB Ram 2000Mhz ?

@nerdyrcdriver 500 - 600W should be fine since the bulldozer isn't draining that much. Just be careful at the quality of the psu.(I whould buy something with 80+ bronze at least). Hope it helped :D

@TheSkeletron0 Buy a 500 W PSU and Corsair would be better
