Hi, this is my first post so bear with me. :D

I have a custom made computer put together by people at a computer shop aroudn 20 month ago, I am looking at installing this GPU:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=ATVPDKIKX0DER

this is a -> PNY NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 2GB GDDR5 2DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI-Express Video Card

my system is as follows:

i5-3460 3.2 Ghz CPU
Gt440 nvidia GPU
P8-Z77 -V LX Motherboard
2x 4GB RipJaw.Gkill RAM
420W PSU
GZ-X7 Black Case - 420W PSU

I was wondering if a) This GPU will fit (subtracting the Gt440 of course) b) 420W is enough (I heard that what Nvidia say is an overestimate of required wattage).c) if this is doable by myself (I am a poor engineering student and cant afford much lol :p ).

If the wattage does not suffice will this do:

which is a -> Corsair CX Series 600 Watt ATX/EPS

Help would be GREATLY appreciated as this doing this myself is saving me probably more than $300
