My system with i3-4150 and 960 draws less than 200W's so it might not be your PSU, but it might also be your PSU. I'd check to see if any programs you've used have made custom fan curves, also what are the idle temps of the 960.

Could also be a driver issue, or maybe something software. You could monitor your fan speeds in MSI Afterburner and make a fan curve so it won't spin up for no reason.
