Can an overclocked MSI GTX 980 Ti be powered by an Antec Neo Eco 620c?

hello :)

 

i'm considering upgrading to msi gtx 980 ti gaming 6, and was wondering if antec neo eco 620c (rebadged seasonic) is good enough to power this card overclocked? It is more than three years old and have not had any issues powering a evga gtx 970 OC'd.

 

also, my psu has 1 x 6-pin pcie cable and 1 x 8-pin (6+2) pcie cable running on a single 12v rail of 48 amps. The card needs 2 x 8-pin cables but comes with a 6-pin to 8-pin adapter. Can I safely use that to meet the power requirement for full overclocking if I connect the 6-pin cable to the 6 to 8-pin adapter?

The 980ti lightening only pulled 400 watts which is led then 40 amps at 12 volts. I'm sure you do not have a 220 watt CPU in there. You will be just fine. Enjoy the card. They are beasts.

400 watts whole system!

Ok, I got the MSI GTX 980 Ti earlier this week and did not have time to test until this weekend. So I have now overclocked and tested after a few hours of Crysis 3 gaming session and my results were this:

 

peaks around 460ish watts @ 96% GPU load, 70C but mostly hovering around 350-450ish watts
