I have a Cooler Master 700watt Silent Pro PSU. I used a PSU calculator ( i know its not exact ) and power consuption for my setup was 655watts. Is that cutting it too close? My setup is exactly as my sig. Thanks again.

Honestly it would probably be fine, but a PSU is one of the (if not the) most important parts of your pc. If you could upgrade i would, but i don't think it is a necessity.

Synthet1X what exactly would you upgrade to? Silent Pro's are decent, stable units.

OP - you're fine.

You'd be hard pressed to get that computer to pull more than 350 watts FROM THE WALL in anything short of an OCCT PSU stress test, and thats wall wattage, which is higher than whats actually being pulled from the PSU. So yes, while the PSU is one of the most important components, you have that well covered already. Absolutely no need to upgrade to anything else.
