Hey, i am going to buy a two year old pc ( specs down below ) The psu is what i am worried about, it is a cooler master b500 powersupply. Is it going to work nicely with a r9 280 and a fx 6300?

The current owner of this pc now says that he have not had any problems with the pc, and he have used it a lot. 2500 hours on cs:go. Do you think the powesupply will work okey?

I am planning to play these games, and the monitor is a 24" 144hz acer monitor:

- fallout 4
- cs:go
- league og legends
- gta v
- minecraft
- call of duty bo3 and bo2
- planetside 2

can this pc play these games at medium - high settings at 1080p ?

- Corsair Graphite 230T Midi Tower Black

- Cooler Master B500, 500W PSU

- AMD FX-6300 Black Edition, Socket AM3+
Prosessor, 3.5GHz, 6-Core

- ASUS M5A97 R2.0, Socket-AM3+

- HyperX Fury DDR3 1600MHz 8GB Black
2x4GB 1600MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM (Kit of 2)

- Sapphire Radeon R9 280 3GB GDDR5
PCI-Express 3.0, "Dual-X", DL-DVI-I + SL-DVI-D, HDMI, DisplayPort, UEFI

- Seagate Barracuda® 1TB

It should work just dandy.

Here's a review on the B500 PSU. If you have any questions about it, have the owner run a one-hour OCCT CPU stress test.

At the end of the test a window will open with a series of charts showing volt delivery and 'Ripple' on the system.
