the card will probably have a recommended minimum power supply listed, but i can't imagine 850 not being enough.
I like to stare at the sun.

I believe 850 is probably already slightly overkill for any single-GPU system, so I'm pretty sure it's quite enough. I'd think you need to go over that only if you have some massively power-hogging AMD CPU, several high-powered GPU's and a literal pile of hard drives.

Some system requirements for a GTX 770 card require at least a power supply of 600wt or more.

Ultimately as long as the PSU supplies enough amperage on the 12v lnes you should be fine. Most manufacturer recommendations concerning "wattage" specs are overkill because cheap power supplies usually vastly overrate what they can actually put out.

The article is dated obviously, but the principles still hold. 
A quick google search brought up the recommended PSU wattage direct from NVidia - 600w.  (http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-770/specifications).  230w for the card itself.
Maybe someday God will give you a little pink toaster of your own.
