Hi, I am from India and I was looking for some help on which Power Supply to choose for my rig.Any advice is welcomed.

CPU : FX-6300 3.5 Ghz.
Motherboard : Gigabyte 78lmt-usb3 Rev 6.0.
Ram : 2GB Corsair 1333Mhz class 9 Ram (x2).
4GB Kingstone 1333Mhz class 9 Ram.

GPU : Sapphire R9 270x Toxic 2GB DDR5.

SMPS : Corsair VS450 12v+ at 34Amps.

Well eventually I thought that my computer can run with that power supply but whenever I am trying to play games my computer restarts which is happening when my Graphics card is at full load.So as a backup plan I am using my HD5670 Graphics card and thinking of buying a SMPS which has future proof and can run my rig without any problem.

Thanks in advance :)

R9 270X requires a minimum 500W , vs 450 doesn't do simply enough though the max output is 500W. Something in the range of 550 or 600W will suffice your requirement. I'd suggest Seasonic 620W.
