Would a Rx-480 be a good choice?

Henryjones2724 · Feb 25, 2017

I got two main questions would a rx-480 work with my mobo and is it worth it?

It will work with your mobo, but do you have the right PSU connectors and at least ~500W of power?

would this one work?

Probably, I wouldn't recommend it though

Henryjones2724 · Feb 25, 2017

why, and what would you?

Corsair CXM, Seasonic G at that budget range

I don't recommend units because I'm pretty snob-alicious on power supplies personally. While you could run the EVGA 500 white, it has poor build quality and could crap out.

A 480 is probably more videocard than an FX 6100 needs but that's a good deal so why not. That EVGA will work, it's not a high end power supply but for a simple one videocard system it's more than enough. Make sure you have at least 8gb system ram, no sense getting a 480 to run games with 4gb of system ram.

Agree. Do not recommend the white. Should at very least upgrade to the EVGA bronze unit. Only $7 more.
