Hello everyone,

I am posting here for the first time and also building a pc for the first time so please take this into consideration if my question sounds stupid or very easy.
I want to build my first pc with an Intel i3 6100 and the soon to be released AMD Radeon RX 470 which I believe it was confirmed to be a 110w card.
Will my new Seasonic G Series 450w PSU be enough to power these two along with a SSD, HDD and maybe one or two fans?

Thank you and best regards.

I have the card sitting right in front of me and it says that a 450W is the minimum system requirement. I already have a 430W power supply laying around so when I build my pc next week ill throw it in and give it a try. Have my fingers crossed!

The company already knows that there are other parts and take them in in the calculation.

Even if they calculated other parts into the minimum psu requirements they don't know if you're using a power hungry i7 or a power optimized pentium as well as fans,storage devices, and expansion slots.
 


They have no idea what his hardware is and they throw numbers out of their rear end like I do confetti at parties.
