Power draw of the 780?

[Tythus]

I presume its around 250W?
I'm moving from a 295 just bought it today and the question didn't even pass my mind.
Also would I just be-able to swap the cards as I already have the up to date drivers or would I still need to re-install drivers?

in actual gaming they use around 200W, so allowing 250w for them will be plenty

and yes, if you already have the latest drivers installed it should just be a case of swapping them over

oh ok that's good as I know the 295 draws at least 250w as its a dual card setup

The GTX 295 draws nearly 300 watts so you should have no problem with a GTX 780.
