Hey,i'm planning to build pc based on intel skylake chipset and the r9 280x but i don't know if 600w PSU will be enough to power the rig . The PSU i'm planning to buy is Raidmax RX-600AF-B . I found it for good price in my country . Oh and also this PCU have 2 6+2 pin power connectors but the GPU requires 2 8 pin. I think that the GPU includes adapters but i don't know if they will do the job ...

Can't i go with something cheaper just for now and i will upgrade within several months because this PSU that you all mentioned are really expensive here ... and they can't fit in my budget .

Of course you can and likely everything will be fine. However, cheap PSU's have cheap components and they have a higher risk of failure and damaging other parts of the system.

easiest way is to point us to a store in your country we can look at. many of us know what is good and what is not pretty well making it easy for us to skim the available units and help pick a decent one for the money.

won't take a couple minutes for the experts to scan a store or two for you :)
