...should higher watt psu accomodate possible gpu upgrade...
* gtx 590 (x2 8-pin, 700 watts min. psu needed)
according this: http://www.antec.outervision.com/psuengine
need 656 watts (1 7200 rpm sata, 1 led 140 fan, 1 led 230 fan, 2 regular 230 fans, 1 regular 140 fan. 1 dvd+/-rw / cd combo. 2 usb devices draw power. sound blaster w/ front bay. +1 120mm fan v8 cooler when installed. motherboard has 2 +12v rail connections onboard, it's high-end.)
dont 590... rocking 470, whats point of such upgrade?
there not 1 game doesn't run amazing on nvidia 460 gtx (which have).
save cash , wait until 6xx series out next year.
hope have cooling , not bunch of fan noise. pc has 5 fans (low noise noctuas). don't hear them , pc cool nvidia card never runs loud.
