I've got a Gigabyte Gtx780, this one in particular: http://www.amazon.fr/Gigabyte-GV-N780GHZ-3GD-Graphique-Nvidia-PCI-Express/dp/B00GD3GDL8/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1404662805&sr=8-7&keywords=Gtx+780

I'm planning on buying another one of these, but I was wondering if my PSU will be fine for it. Light overclocking on the GPU and CPU will be done. 

The GPU says it requires atleast a 650w PSU (on the box) and the actual max usage or w/e is 450W, but it doesn't actually use this much of course. Can my OCZ Fatal1ty 80+ Bronze 750w handle 2 of them when lighty overclocked?

Check out this website:

basically 850w is highly recommended to stop any weird crashes and maybe even damage to components, but you may be able to get away with 750w 

i5 4440 (upgrade impending), ASUS Maximus VI Hero, Corsair vengance 8gb 1600mhz, GTX 770, samsung 840 evo 120GB, 1tb WD Black, Corsair RM650, H100i, Corsair Air 540.
