I have decided on getting this card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130365. I have a Hiper 580 PSU with total 12V of 38A. I just want to make sure this will power the beast. Also will this be bottlenecked by processor.

Here is over all specs
E6600@ 3.0 333x9
Gigabyte P45 UD3
4GB Crucial Ballistix 1066
Hiper 580 PSU
400 GB hard drive

    The recommended amperage for a GTX 280 is 40a. Yes, your CPU will bottleneck the card.

    So does that mean that it won't run it? Or us decrease performance?
