You only need 550W to drive any single GPU setup. 600W is more than enough, no harm in using it though. 

 

EVGA SuperNOVA 650w G2 or XFX XTR 650w

Yes, the G1 is far worse. Look at the GS/G2/GQ/B2

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

A decent 500w would already be plenty for either card. Can you link us to where you're shopping?
