More than enough. It's a OK-to-bad-ish [Tier 6 :/] PSU with 600W. What else is in that rig?

No. Thermal Take Lite power is shit and should be replaced.

The FSP models might be okay-ish, but not for a computer GPU, I wouldn't touch the other ones, not 80plus certified and calling a 500W a 600W, GTFO!

First off, calm down. 

Second of all, It's fine. The PSU isn't rated well, but if he already has it and knows it works then its fine. Yes its incorrecly rated, but that's why you check the 12v rail rating. (And depending on the model, its either 480w or 540w. Soooo....)

the litepowers have 4 OEMs, fsp, cwt, HEC and solytech(deer) IIRC, and solytech is known to make junk so i'd avoid them even if one of the OEMs are fine.

Sorry, no.

 

Single 12V rail = Likely Bad.

12V rail output =/= Good.

All 3 "600W" TT Litepower are made by average or bad OEMs (HEC and Solytech). (The products manager at Corsair said  "Divert your eyes." when people where asking if HEC (the better of the 2 OEMs) was the OEM for the new VS line and, he also stated that he had nothing to do with that, it was the previous products manager and he dislikes HEC's production facilities)

(Delta made some of the low wattage Lite Power back in the day)
