Hi I want to ask.. I want to buy R9 390 from Sapphire. Now I have only 600W PSU, but I'm not sure if it can handle all the components.
Specs :
i5 6600K, R9 390, ADATA 2133Mhz DDR4 2x 8 GB, 4HDDs and 1 SSD, MSI B150PC Mate Mobo, some small fans, one CD/DVD mechanics.
 
We need to know what PSU first.



False.

OP's system at full load won't even reach 400W once efficiency has been included, that's not really "a bit close".

And, you want a high load on a PSU to gain the most from it, what do you mean by "it will not run efficiently"?

Would need the exact model as Coolermaster has many low quality units that would fail even before hitting 75% of their advertised wattage. There should be a sticker on the side of the psu with the model number.
