750 is EASILY enough, you could probably get away with 650 maybe lower.

750Watts is enough. The PSU must be from a well recognized brand such as corsair, antec, seasonic, Silverstone, Tagan, Thermaltake etc.

With no gpu that computer will draw around 200 watts. The 750 is overkill.

My question is, is their any video cards in the system?, 750 is a good amount for everything but if your trying to run quad or three way SLI or Tri fire your not gonna do it with 750

GTX570 with an i7 draws under 400 watts.
