Hi,
I am planning to get R9 380/380x.
My PSU is Zalman ZM450-FX (SFX PSU). 80+ Bronze and 36A on 12V rail.
I am going to overclock GPU, but I will not change core voltage. Problem is that my case only supports SFX PSUs, so if I will get more powerful PSU, it will cost around 100$ and I will not able to buy new GPU. I have seen benchmarks with R9 380x and its power consumtion in Furmark was less than 360W. Will my PSU handle R9 380/380x with OC at peak usage? Or should I get GTX 960?
My current PC specs: i5-4460, GTX 950,8gb ram, MSI z87i gaming ac, WD blue HDD 1TB, Samsung Evo 850 SSD 120GB
P.S. I know it is worthless to upgrade GTX 950 to 960, but extra performance is realy important for me.
