You should be good.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

The 650 watt should be plenty. I have a 650 watt with my 1080ti and I'm having no problems.

No, the 650 is more than enough. You will rarely use over 400w with that system.

Should be fine. My guess is you'd be around 70% load, which is pretty close to your power supplys peak efficiency curve

650W is what we recommend for a 1080Ti and an i7 with overclocking.

I have a 6700k and an MSI GTX980 OC and I top out at 400W at 4.5GHz and stock gpu.

That 1080ti has a TDP 100W higher than the 980.

If you were to be pulling 500W that's a little close to 650W.

650W is enough for two higher end cards like 7970GHz/280X with an FX8350 or even i7-3930K.
