   "There's still enough power on top to run a Core i7 or Phenom X6 processor
    and a discrete GPU, but you'll want to stick with graphics cards that only
    require a single PCIe power connection to err on the side of caution."

That means in their estimation, a 125W video card (50W slot, 75W on 2x3)

    5V  3.3V  12V1  12V2  -12V  +5VSB    [ PCIe  1 x 6-pin ]

   20A  20A   17A   15A   0.5A   2.5A
   \       /  \        /
     115W      28A common
   combined     source

12V2 is CPU
12V1 is peripherals, PCIe slots

The two wiring looms should have their own overcurrent detection.
And apparently draw from a common source (the 28A number).

*******

"ASUS F1A75"  we don't know what processor.

A guess would be, it can't be over about 100W or 12V @ 10A to allow some
efficiency room. The 380D should be fine with the 15A it offers.

https://www.asus.com/me-en/supportonly/f1a75-v%20pro/helpdesk_cpu/

   AMD A8-3870K (AD3870WNZ43GX, rev.B0, 3.0GHz, QC, L2:4M, HD6550D, 100W)

10A from 28A combined spec, leaves 18A for peripherals, and the peripheral
rail has a 17A limit. 10A for the biggest video card it supports by
using the PCIe 2x3 connector leaves 12V @ 7A margin.

Best guess, when the supply was healthy and new, yes, it would be
sufficient for that board. Barring any surprises like
"I'm running a Bitcoin farm off it too" :-)
