It's just LEDs bruh. You're good to go. The power draw to them are like ants compared to everything else in your case.

 

But why a CX with those specs tho.

Inb4 DROP IT

I used to have a CX. I replaced it since I started using SLI. They were okay for powering my single card and system for a few months. It gets really hot tho. I can feel the hot exhaust from the PSU itself.
