Need to know which Power Supply to take

infusedsandwich · Dec 9, 2013

Hello! So, as always, straight to the question:

I bought the Club3D R9 270X graphics card and as expected my no-brand ATX ''500W''(totally not that much, but that's what it says) can't run it because It doesn't even have the required output cables.

So: Need to know a good, cheap power supply that can run these thingamabobers-

*2x 4gb Kingston Blu Ram
*Club3D R9 270x
*AMD FX 6100
*500 gb Hard drive

I need a cheap and compatible one (probably 80+ something)

Thanks!

For a system using a single AMD Reference Design Radeon R9 270X graphics card AMD specifies a minimum of a 500 Watt or greater system power supply. The power supply should also have a maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 30 Amps or greater and have at least two 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors.

Total Power Supply Wattage is NOT the crucial factor in power supply selection!!! Sufficient Total Combined Continuous Power/Current Available on the +12V Rail(s) rated at 45°C - 50°C ambient temperature, is the most critical factor.

Overclocking of the CPU and/or GPU(s) may require an additional increase to the maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current ratings, recommended above, to meet the increase in power required for the overclock. The additional amount required will depend on the magnitude of the overclock being attempted.

The XFX Pro Series Core Edition 550W (P1-550S-XXB9) power supply unit, with its maximum combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 44 Amps and with one 6-pin and one (6+2)-pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors, is more than sufficient to power your system configuration with a single Radeon R9 270X graphics card.
