Can I use this 1000w 80+ PSU for a PC which in the manual is indicated to install 800 w or 1050 w 80+ PSU?

That is strange, I do not see a reason why you would not be able to use this. It should function fine. I love mine so far.

Yes you can, I woiuld use this for a system which needs a lot of power. For example, your video card. some require a mimimun voltage, you can always have more and use less and not the other way around. I wll say this power supply after turning off your computer will still show the blue LEDs untill the unit has discarged, if that is not a problem for you then this unit will work.

In the specs, 300W its the minimun requirement. But that depends on your other hardware attach to your PC (Hard Drives, Fans, Optical Drives, Etc).You should calculate how much PSU power its needed for your PC using a PSU CALCULATOR. Here this one its from Cooler Master: http://www.coolermaster.outervision.com/The optimal use of a PSU its 20% 60% and 80% usage of watts. You cant use 100% of the PSU, `cause that 20% missing its mostly gone in heat if your PSU UNIT its "RATED 80PLUS".I recomend going for 60% usage, so your power supply will be more eficient and deliver less heat.

Yes, per the box's requirements "750w (or greater) power supply with one 150w 8-pin PCI Express power connector and one 75w 6-pin PCI Express power connector recommended. Certified power supplies are recommended. Refer to http://ati.amd.com/certifiedPSU for a list of certified products."

That's more then enough, you will have about 100w extra, just be aware any additional hardware besides your build will tax your psu more for future upgrades.if you have any other questions iam more then happy to help a fellow comp builder

550w should be more than enough but that does depend on your amperage draw. If it an Antec 80i plis certified than u should be covered. Other than that i would still but it up to a 600 - 650w just to be safe only because you don't want to bottle neck you psu in terms of performace. But 550w is the minimum.

the wattage should be fine but you also need supplemental power plugged directly into this card from the psu.

Yes definitely, and if you don't trust me or anyone else here, go to pcpartpicker.com and put in all the parts to see the estimated wattage. This PSU has 80% bronze efficiency so you should leave around 150W just to be safe.

You shouldn't, but it depends on what else is on your machine. I have 3 hard drives and added this card, which only uses 110 watts, and it's working fine with a 500w PS. That's one reason I selected this card because of it's low power consumption.

can't really tell .All depends on how your pc is configured. I personally used a 650w
1182915
You need around 700W for your setup, so 750W from this unit should be more than enough... keep the brand in mind though, going Corsair is a safe bet because they advertise the power the unit can handle continuosly, and not the peak wattage it can reach, this is a great PSU for your setup... :)

Yes. Remember that all of your motherboard components must be connected to the same PSU, so in your case, I would use the 500W PSU as the primary to power your motherboard and CPU, and use the PCI-E headers on the 750W PSU to power the cards.

As far as the overall watts are concerned, this is enough. There's also enough plugs for all of that (with room for another graphics card or two if you wanted more later). You should be just fine! I love this PSU. Highly recommended.

Hey man, the best advice I can give is go to pcpicker dot com and "build" your computer within the website. It should tell ya if 300W is enough. :) That is what I did when building my computer!

Your best bet is to google "PSU Calculator" and because they are all slightly different plus the components into each online calculator and see what they give you for a wattage count. Usually they are configured to calculate a 90% load. So whatever wattage you get is usually on the high end of your system running at near max conditions. My system running two of these with the FX 8350, 16gb RAM, 1 DVDRW, and Corsair H60 uses about 600w. However, start overclocking those cards and you can jump the wattage up quickly. I went to 850w psu to be safe but ran cards at stock clock

Not really, although you might be just fine and probably safe, but you will be pushing limits. It all depends on what you are doing, for how long, and the quality of your PSU. The requirements listed on the box are 750 watts (or more) with one 150 watt 8 pin pcie power connector and one 75 watt 6 pin pcie power connector.

Corsair RM Series 1000 Watt ATX/EPS 80PLUS Gold-Certified Power Supply - CP-9020062-NA RM1000 if you mean that one it should no problem the 600 watt one might if you don't plan to over clock it and tax out the system to much.

This is not a good psu. Buy http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JEJZ1N4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
