Hi guys!
I am a newbie (first post) here and I am very sorry if I misplaced the post or anything similar

I worried about buying an asus r7 260x oc
( https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/R7260XDC2OC2GD5/ )

My main concern is that my psu will not be able to properly power the gpu

So I am using
PSU: Allied Tech SL 8500BTX PSU (total output 500W ish I do not really trust the brand)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H55M-USB3
CPU: Intel core i5 750 2.66Ghz (stock clockings)
RAM: 2x4Gb Hyperx
Current GPU: MSI GT 240 DDR3 1Gb 128bit.

I found the graphics card slightly used from the second largest tech seller in my country for about 80euros with 12 month warranty thats why I am so eager to buy it.

I would be very grateful for your time and assistance.

[strike]Is this the PSU? http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/530/allied_500_watt_psu_review/index.html[/strike]

Edit: nvm that review stinks. Anyway it could work, but we can't know. Personally I'd grab a Corsair CX450M for $30 after rebate on Newegg. Your PSU is a piece of junk.
