easily with about 300 watts to spare under load.
ok thanks 1 more question it will be able to run on this mobo http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128375 cause i hear it takes 2 pci-e slots
The card uses one PCI-e 16x slot and, due to its size, covers whatever slot is below the PCI-e 16x slot. Here's a pic of it in my rig for comparison:
That X58-UD3R should be perfectly fine.

well maybe that psu was worse than the PC Power & Cooling 750 watt. the op has less stuff to run but still you should not have even been at 500 watts even under full load so that must have been one crappy psu.

I had one that ran 2 GTX 260s overclocked in sli for a few months with my overclocked e8400 and ram with 4 drives in raid0. Untill it failed on me. I think it was a lemon. I do fell PCP+C psus are a bit overrated, though. Just beware of OCZ's rebates. Make sure that you are happy with the price before the rebate.
Also there is no reason that any decent 750w psu couldn't run a GTX295.

I dunno, but my system kept going off with the thermaltake 750W.
