Hello, I have recently bought an RX560 2GB video card and now I feel confused about the requirements for it.
I have looked around and it tells me that anything over 400W is fine, so I was like "alright" and bought it off amazon.
https://www.amazon.com/Sapphire-Radeon-Graphics-Graphic-11267-02-20G/dp/B071HR2X9Q/ref=pd_sbs_147_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B071HR2X9Q&pd_rd_r=F66D1DH6ARG0754ZWCQT&pd_rd_w=Mk8bD&pd_rd_wg=ylIfF&psc=1&refRID=F66D1DH6ARG0754ZWCQT
Now I just got in the mail and now its telling me that it needs 500W, this is odd as everywhere I go it tells me differently.
The one I bought came from Sapphire under their pulse family and even on their website its telling me that I only need about 400W.

so now I feel absolutely lost right now and I am afraid that my entire computer will break if my PSU does not support this card.
I have also noticed that the box has an "overclock" sticker on to it, does that have anything to do with it?
My build:
CPU: Intel Pentium G4560
MB:GIGABYTE GA-B250M-DS3H LGA1151 Intel Micro ATX DDR4
RAM:Ballistix Sport LT 8GB Single DDR4 2400 MT/s (PC4-19200) DIMM 288-Pin
HD:WD Blue 1TB SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM 64MB Cache
PSU:EVGA 450 B1, 80+ BRONZE 450W
GPU: Radeon RX560 2GB (trying to install)
