Open up your case and look on the side of the power supply, it should give all the info you need there.

You'd need to find a way to stress your hardware, then use a hardware meter to monitor power consumption.

Alternatively, get a PSU from a good manufacturer like Corsair and you won't have to worry about it.

EDIT: Endure, the OP doesn't trust their power supply for whatever reason and is asking for a way to see if it's actually supplying what the power supply says it can supply.

i already brought it and its not that i dont trust it cuz i know Corsair 650w is good but just wanted to know. Cant rly stress it yet cuz i dont have my good parts yet, brought it for my future 2x gtx260.

im asking cuz its acting weird, my comp shuts itself off randomly but not compleately, like monitor w/ no signal, goes black and i cant do anything. Sometimes at start its just black screen and no sound or anything. If it was the graphics card i would hear the win start up sound and this only happenns after i changed the PSU.

Offtopic: Does the memory of the GPU has to match the ram memory?
Ex. GPU ddr3 and ram ddr2, will that still work properly?

No, not at all to the 1st or 2nd question? O_o 1st one? so it does not hav to match? kk

and what about this acting weird problem, my comp shuts itself off randomly but not compleately, like monitor w/ no signal, goes black and i cant do anything. Sometimes at start its just black screen and no sound or anything. If it was the graphics card i would hear the win start up sound and this only happenns after i changed the PSU.

is it the cause of the PSU or what? i didint connect it right? Sometimes it works normaly for a while and then it goes black.

Make sure your VGA or DVI cable is securely attached, as well as your monitor's power cable.
