Hello all.
I recently upgraded my power supply to a Corsair VS550 in order to install a Radeon R9 280X to replace my aging HD6750. Unfortunately AMD raised the prices and the 280X is now out of my price range. I was going to go for the GTX760, but I got an offer from a friend to ship me a GTX770 from the US. Now the problem I am facing is the power output. The card says it requires a 600W power supply. Will it be able to run with my 550W?
The rest of my rig is as follows:
ASRock 970DE3 U3/S3
AMD Phenom II 965BE @stock (Planning to upgrade to an FX8320 somewhere down the line, though both the 965 and 8320/8350 draw pretty much the same amount of power)
2x4GB Corsair Vengeance @1600Mhz
1TB Hitachi HDD
Thanks in advance
