Hi,
I've got an 8-core AMD PC setup. Recently, I'm thinking of buying a Sapphire ATI Radeoin R9 290X, but I'm not sure which PSU to get, or if need to upgrade my PSU at all. Any advise would be good. My current system specs are as follows:

Motherboard: Asus M5A88M
Processor: AMD FX 8-Core 8120 Black Edition
RAM: 2x4GB DDR3
Current Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD 4870
PSU: Cooler Master Vanguard 700W
Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24D3ST DVD Burner

Please let me know if any further information is required, and I'll update this post accordingly.

Thanks,

Your PSU is great , can deliver almost 850W under load.Read this http://www.kitguru.net/components/power-supplies/zardon/cooler-master-v-series-700w-v700-psu-review/7/
Just buy the video card.

Thanks for that... was really afraid I'd have to get a PSU. I just don't have the budget for it right now :p. It's just that I had a look at the card's packing box while in the store, and it read that the power supply should be of 750W or greater. That's what got me concerned.
