2600k Power Consumption

[Zontar]

I'm still running an E6400. It's been long in the tooth for about two years now.

So, I'm thinking of moving to a 2600K machine now that it's out. I don't know if I have enough power though. I have a 1000w PSU, and want to run it with the chip overclocked at 4.4Ghz, SLI 570s, and 16GB DDR3-1600. Will the chip consume too much energy in this setup?

Not even close, you should be fine if your PSU is of any quality whatsoever.

From what I understand even my PCP&C 750w Silencer will have no issue running a 2600k with dual 6870s for my setup- so a quality 1k PSU should be fine for your purposes.

You have more than enough power for that setup.
