I´m trying to upgrade my graphics, I'd like to know if the 12V rail amperage requirement of the R7 260X could be met by my current power supply.

Below is the picture of my current Power supply and its specs:

Thanks in advance!

Hi - Yes, that PSU can run your current sys/GPU. The actual +12v rail amps avail is less than the sum
(29)of the two +12v rails separately. I couldn't find that exact model in the TT database, but did find
a PSU with the same +12v rail config (15+14) by the same OEM (HEC) that had 23 +12v amps avail and
included a 6pin pcie connector.

But, your sys with an R9 260x needs only 19 +12v amps, so you should be good to go.

However, I recommend you start saving for a better quality PSU...

bottom feeder
from a quality standpoint.
