Yes it will be fine  :) (Plus overclockers wouldn't build it if they didn't think it was up to the job)

I'll run an i7-4790K, with a Vapor-X R9 290X, 8GB RAM, H100i, an Optical Drive. Will a 650W SuperFlower GOLD Fully Modular PSU be enough under load? It should be in theory.

I'm streaming every day, many AAA games, to entertain people and to get a hang of games that others are unable to play or want to see before they buy.

Uses PC part picker and it will be able to tell you your Wattage . More information would be needed such as your mobo and any SSDs or HDDs.

Should be golden if that's all you have...

 

4790K

R9-290X

2x4GB Ram (2 sticks right?)

H100i

Optical Drive / 1 HDD / 1 SSD

ASRock Extreme 4

(least 2 case fans?)

no other parts besides usb plugged in?

 

Pretty sure I'd get close to 650w before you'd hit 500w against my setup. So 650w should be great for you until you think about Crossfire/SLi and adding much more stuff.

Just wanted to double check, yes even on the forums and all that, they didnt say anything about it.
