Hi, I need to know, is 430 watts enough for this rig:

CPU: AMD Athlon X4 760K Quad-Core 3.8GHz with turbo boost up to 4.1GHz.
RAM: 8GB Crucial Ballistix Sport 1600MHz.
GPU: Sapphire Radeon R7 260X 2GB OC.
HDD: Western Digital Black 1TB.
MBO: MSI A78M-E35.
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper TX3.
Case: Corsair Carbide SPEC-01.

Well its not dangerous (yet), but it can get dangerous when you are pushing too much load on the PSU that you require mor ethan 430W but cant get that much, and when you have reached the limit the PSU will then shut off because it cant handle more and it might damage some of your components.

You can probably run the system on it, but not for gaming or under load.
You should rather get 500W+
