    It shouldn't have any problem. Particularly if your PSU has 4xPCIe power connectors.

    As above - any good quality supply will handle it easily (other components being normal), just check you have the right connectors.

    Re: 650w psu

    It depends on the psu. If it's a cheap generic one then probably not. Just because a psu says 650w on the label doesn't mean it can deliver that on the all important 12v rail. What make and model is it?

    Will be fine then. Each card only pulls around 177w max when running the likes of furmark. Will be around 130-140w each while gaming.
