i bought a 650 watt psu off ebay new in the box and it keeps shutting off when i play games so i wanted to know if the earthwatts psu io have as a spare would power my settup till i can afford a new psu in case you need more info i am running an athlon 64 x2 6000+ 125 watt cpu 1 1TB standard sata hard drive 1 sata dvd rom and 1 80mm led side cooling fan for the case and 4 1 gig ddr2 800 mhz memory sticks
 
will it allow me to play games even with all the other stuff i have being powered by said psu
 
Antec is a good PSU. My brother has the exact model PSU you have, which is powering his AMD 7770 gpu.
