I've recently ordered a PC From PCspecialist and many people have told me my computer would need much more power I've have checked power calculator websites to check how much watts my PC will need so if anyone could possibly tell me if it's enough that would be great.

SPECS:
CASE:Corsair Graphite Series 600T White MID-TOWER CASE
CPU:Intel Core i7 Quad Core Processor i7-4790K (4.0GHz) 8mb Cache
MOTHERBOARD:ASUS MAXIMUS VII GENE RoG, PCI-e 3.0, SATA 3.0, USB3.0
MEMORY:8GB KINGSTON HYPER-X FURY DUAL DDR3 1600MHZ
VIDEO CARD:4GB Nvidia GEFORCE GTX 970
HDD:2TB 3.5 SEAGATE SSHD, SATA 6GB/s 7200 RPM
DVD/Blu-RAY:16X BLU-RAY WRTIE DRIVE, 16x DVD RW
CPUCooler:CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO
Extra fans 2 x 12CM Black case fans
PSU:CORSAIR 450W VS SERIES


Is this enough power for my PC And if not what are the risks?

If the configurator didn't shown any warnings then it will be fine. Seems a bit unbalanced though with 450w psu. I would push for a 650w modular psu to have more room for upgrades. A cheaper motberboard like the z97-a will do the same job and if it is just for gaming you can save money by getting a non-k i7 and a triple copper heatpipe cpu cooler instead
