Gigabyte power supplies are generally trash. They are rated at peak power and not continuous output like a quality brand would be. I would not use one with a power hungry R9 290 card. ( I really wouldn't use one at all to be honest! )

Typical review.

Don't get me wrong I have used Gigabyte motherboards in my personal builds since the early 2000s and will continue to do so. Some companies should stick to what they do best though like Gigabyte, Coolermaster and Thermaltake. Great products from all 3 companies except power supplies.
