Hi guys

I have the opportunity to sell my 780GTX Zotac and buy this card (290X Sapphire), with just 50USD of difference.

My Question is..
Is my PSU enough to run this VGA ? , dont have much money to spend in another PSU..

What do u think ??

Thanks a lot

Well even on the weaker card the R9 280X, AMD says that also needs 750w, but it can be powered by much lower PSU, something like 550-600w, depending on the other parts of the system. Btw the max power produced by the R9 290X under full load is 400w, so you have 300w left.
