Hello, i've recently replaced my old gtx 470 msi card with new msi 580 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-116-MS&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1812, and installed new ssd http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-017-KS&groupid=701&catid=2104&subcat=1427. Soon after uprade my pc failed at overclocking. So my question is, does my psu "corsair tx 650 atx sli cps" which i currently have is enough for my current system and which psu would u advice me to get since i consider getting a new gtx 580 on Christmass :).

My system spec as follows:
Win 7 64bit, seagate barracuda 1tb sata-2,ocz vertex 120gb ssd,kingston hyperx 120gb ssd,corsair tx 650 atx sli cps,ocuk dvd-rw,lg bluray-rw,antec 902 case, i7 950 3,06 @ 4ghz, corsair xms3 12gb ddr 3 @1400mhz, corsair hydro h70, Asus p6x58d-e x58.

To clarify, do you plan on getting another GTx580? i.e. SLI? If so, I'd get one of these PSUs:

Expensive, but thats some expensive system which you don't want to leave in the hands of a cheap PSU. Your current one should be fine with a single 580.
