Am I missing something or did you forget to include what power supply you have?

That shouldn't be a problem. GTX 690 doesn't really draw all that much.

I think the recommended requirement from what I see is 750w.

No. Any 500-600w PSU should be fine for any single GPU setup. With headroom for heavy air overclocks.

In the anandtech review the system only drew just over 500w at the wall with the video card overclocked. Thats with a cpu that draws a lot more than yours and doesn't even factor in the psu's efficiency. If its drawing 512w at the wall in the anandtech review and the psu is 90% efficient then in reality the system was only drawing 420w from the power supply.
