Ok folks this is my PSU:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817182069 Is it good enough to power 1 GTX280? I've been reading and from what I can tell each of the 4 rails put out 20 amps each. Than under that it says 60A My PSU powers my Ultra great and is raited up to 2 8800GTX SLI. The PSU came with 1 6pin to 8pin connector. Also on my sig rig you can see it will be powering all that good stuff and a water pump. I know there are other PSU's out there but I like mine and has never given me trouble. So please just post a yes or no. If you post no feel free to point me at the psu you think is good. But if mine is good enough please just tell me yes.

Yup, the Rosewill Extremes are surprisingly good and can definitely handle a gtx280. I mean, they aren't as good as say the Corsair 750 but they are still above average and worth buying at the right price.

It's overkill, if anything

Well maybe a little
. I'd say with a gtx280 his system would draw ~450W when overclocked so a quality 650W would be enough. 750W isn't completely out there though, you can never have too much of a PSU.

Ut oh... My PC on full load is about 350 watts (according my PAC ups software). Is it really gonna hit 450 watts? That's gonna force me to get another UPS (had to just buy this 6 months ago for my ultra)

I was using a 650watt psu before... sold it for $100 and grabed an old 450watt laying around the house.
hey it works, and made $100.
