But the Recommended wattage from XFX website says 750w (minimum)
Also one guy in tomshardware forum commented that he got fried up his 600w psu with same specs (mainly AMD FX 8350 and AMD R9 280X). Thanks a lot for answering.

A good 650watt psu should be sufficient,even with overclocking,indeed from that list tier 1 or 2.

Don't know what kind of psu,mean maker model, "that guy" had,but it was probably a poor choice.

Where are you looking? Maybe link the psu list plus budget here?

Can you post a list for psu (650w to 750w),mainly Reliable and cheap (prbably within Rupees 6k to 7k or 8K at max )
