I've got a i3 6100,asus h110m-k,8gb ddr4 ram. My pc was working with the mobo graphics card, then i installed my r7 250. The pc worked, and i was about to download the drivers for it. Then the pc froze, and now, it wont boot up with the r7 250 or without it. Fans, hdd spinning, there are no beeps, no video or anything. There is a high pitch sound coming from my psu( thermaltake xp550pp 430w) before i even turn on my pc. I tried cmos reset, unplugging the cables. Could be my psu the problem? i had these components before the i3: q6600, asus p45 mobo 3x2gb ddr2 ram.

Not familiar with those products.

Check for product reviews in both this forum and other websites.

Visit the manufacturer's websites and find the manuals. Read the manufacturer's forums and FAQs as well.

Perhaps someone else following this thread will be able to comment directly on both products.

I will say that I would go with the higher wattage. I.e., 500 watts over 450 watts. Leaves room for growth.

Still size your system to ensure that 500 watts is enough.

Seems to be an older PSU.

You do not necessarily need to replace the PSU with the same make and model.

Look up the detailed specifications for the Thermaltake.

This link may help:

(Note - did see a lot of Russian websites come up via my internet search.....)

Would suggest that you look for a different make and model with a higher power output as well.

Use one of the online comparators to size the PSU to your system.

And take a look at some of the PSU reviews and other information available within this forum.
