The total wattage of a PSU isn't the issue. As another comment points out, it's the number of rails and amperage per rail. If the motherboard is drawing a lot of amps because of the CPU and you stick another high current device on it, you will run into issues. If you had a SATA SSD that drew the same current you wouldn't likely had any issue since it would have been on a different rail.
