Solution Scampi Jun 14, 2014 R9 290X requires 33 Amps on the 12v rail & a 600W PSU minimum Judging by Aerocool's other VP Pro units, they are lower rated on the 12v rail, so it's likely 700W in reality, and should do the job. However, if you can shell out the cash for such a great GPU, why skimp on the PSU ?
