How many watts is a Mac Pro 5,1 power supply?

I have a Mac Pro 5,1 2012. Does anyone know how many watts the power supply is? I've heard mixed answers everywhere, from 900 watts to 1200 watts, to 90, which I think they were confusing with a MacBook Pro 85 watt charger, but still.

I would also be interested in replacing the power supply if it is under 700 watts, as I am running 3 hard drives and the stock ATI Radeon 5770 alongside a Nvidia GeFroce GTX 960. Does the Mac Pro 5,1 use a standard power supply and connectors?

Anything helps!
