^XFX Core Edition Pro 550W 80Plus Bronze $45-$60.

thats a low quality psu...it cannot support a 7870...it can only support up to 7790..

rounakr94 · Jan 5, 2014

^Was that reply for me? I am running a r9-280X on that psu with 4670k OC'd and my system consumes only 378W on extreme load and 7870 is far less power hungry.

a1blaster :

so should i go for
Sapphire AMD/ATI HD 7790 OC 2 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card?

gamerkila57 · Jan 5, 2014

I suggest this PSU and a 7870

EVGA 500W - $29.99 AR
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438016

a1blaster · Jan 5, 2014

lightion :

2 options:
buy a 7790 now or buy both 500W psu and 7870 later

lightion · Jan 5, 2014

gamerkila57 :

except for psu other things that are required is fine right for 7870?

gamerkila57 · Jan 5, 2014

lightion :

Yes everything else is fine except the PSU

lightion · Jan 5, 2014

gamerkila57 :

if i've to buy different psu what exactly should i be looking (configuration)? i'm from different country where i get 220V input!

gamerkila57 · Jan 5, 2014

lightion :

When buying a PSU make i always like to have one with a single 12v rail and at least 80+ Plus certified. Also make sure its minimum of 35A on the +12v rail
