Currently trying to decide between a 970 and a R9 390, and the power draw of the latter is substantially greater:

Here's the PSU in question:

820W but from some crappy, unknown brand. My CPU is a FX-8350 which is already very power hungry, where as my GPU is a GTX 660 which is pretty lightweight. Recommended PSU for R9 390 is 750W so i'm already riding the line here.
