psu review:
http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/Zalman-ZM360B-APS-Power-Supply-Review/539/10
they're sayin its a really good psu and they pulled out 475w ,
and the gtx 770 + fx6300 and the rest of the stuff , is only going on 382W on peak ( 100% use )
so im a bit worried , cause i dont have any money right now to buy a new psu , and i was wondering if this psu can handle this config
thanks in advance , im hoping it can , cause i really really like this card
 
That PSU is rated for 312W on the 12V rail (where the CPU and GPU power come from).

Its a fire hazard at best.
 
Review is from 2008, so I do not know. Should pull 400 watts 12volt. The 12V1/12V2 split may cause a problem, depending where protection kicks in.

but the CPU+GPU is going to pull 312w? , the GPU is going to pull 230W on fullload
idk about the CPU
 
and a gtx 760 , you guys it would hold? it says here that is going to pull 294W but im not sure if its a good idea to buy this one...gtx 760 4gb zotac
 
I wouldn't run anything over a 750Ti on that power supply.

Spend some of the GPU money on the PSU, save your computer from fire and electrical failure.
 
Old CapXon capacitors at 100% load? No thanks.

I would get a new, good, PSU.
