    You're probably not going to be drawing more than about 300w from the wall so I'd say something around the 600w mark would be optimal.

    Remember a power supply is most efficient at about 50% load.



    Edit: Just seen the "3x" next to your GPU.

    With 3 GTX 670 you'll be pulling a fair amount of power. 650w would be the bare minimum I would have thought, with 1000w being the most efficient.

    I'd recommend something around the 850W mark if you're tight on cash.
