I'm trying to decide between the Sapphire Nitro+ 5700 XT and the MSI Gaming X 5700 XT. Both have received good reviews that I have seen. I know the MSI card isn't available yet, and I can wait, if I can get help with my question. My issue is with recommended PSU for both cards. The Sapphire says it needs a 650W PSU (from the specs on Sapphire's site) and the MSI Gaming X needs a 750W PSU. I have a 750W PSU. I've never gotten a card that needed the maximum of what my PSU can provide before. Will this be a problem? Is it ok to have the exact wattage a card calls for and still have it work? Or am I stuck (not the best word, as the Sapphire card is still good) with getting the Sapphire card because it calls for less power than I have? Thanks for any help that is provided.
