I own this power supply and I need to know is this powersupply safe to use and the quality of this power supply. And by max combined wattage is it the same with continuous wattage ? + can I use the radeon rx 480 with this power supply ?

7 yrs, is too old IMO to be the heart of a new system. Please consider replacing it.
I would assume MX LOAD to be equal to Peak load and therefore making it about 350w continuous. But that would have been when new and not after 6-7 years of aging in which components weaken, especially capacitors.
