I'm wondering if the CORSAIR 650W Power Supply is more power-hungry than necessary for this spec?
I don't want it to overheat, but also want to avoid using more power than necessary.

Any other comments or suggested improvements welcome.I already have a fairly new 1TB HDD I'm intending to transfer from my old Dell PC (and I might add another I'm currently using in an external hard drive case).
