Good budget gpu for a 450w psu

Lumberjack_64 · Jun 11, 2015

Hi, I wanted to buy a gtx 750ti but I realized I needed a new psu. I have ordered a 500w psu and want to know if there is a gpu better than the gtx 750ti for a 450w psu and in the 150$ price range

Radeon r9 270x/ 280 (if psu is good quality one)

Depends on your configuration , if you have a power hungry CPU like the AMD FX series , you can be pushing it with an r9 270x , considering you have a CPU of 150w TDP=

150w(gpu)+`180w(fx 8320 under full load) =330w already , throw in a couple of HDDs , fans and other stuff , and you will be pushing it for a 450w PSU , it also depends how much amperes you PSU can give on +12v rails , and also its efficiency.

It's a really good one and I already factored in already for the cpu, It's actually 500w but my cpu is a bit power hungry so I just said it was 450 to make up for my cpu

Can you recomend me a small and cheap r9270x on Amazon? I need it to be smaller than 7inches

+ a $20 direct rebate from Asus who do actually have a good history of paying out.

Far far better than a 750ti.

Edit - there isn't a model that small - the powercolor is the smallest at just under 8 inch

Ok I remesured my pc and found out that there is a 2mm clearance between my ram and an 8 inch gpu so if the gpu ur talking about does not have any components (heatpipes) under the pcb it might fit.
Here is an image to evaluate urself http://imgur.com/jyiiX86. Can the gpu ur talking about fit?
A side note: my current gpu measures 7.1inches

Corsair CS Series 450 is good one.

I have had many corsair power supplies in the past and they have very less defect problems.

I already ordered my psu. I actually started thinking about the gtx 960..the normal Evga model is 6inches so it can fit in my case but the price....

Get a GTX 960. Best GPU for the price.
