As for the 500 W B evga bronze it is not great but won't burn anything

Corsair CX430 + GTX 750Ti + i7 3770k

Will it work?

 

EDIT EDIT EDIT : I have a i7 3770k already, not buying it, just thought it would be part of the power consumption.

Low end GPU + Mid-End CPU + Low end PSU = Nope

 

Better Choice:

R9 285 (or R9 380) + i5 4460 + XFX TS = Good, Balanced Gaming PC.

best part is you can get a ts bronze 550 for 26 bucks after rebate, or a 650 gold for 44, so there is no excuse for crap PSUs

I am only getting a graphics card and power supply.

If you haven't gotten the 750ti yet, I'd save up a bit and get an R9 270x or R9 370/380 2GB on sale.

 

The PSU could be better, you'd really be pushing 430W. Save up a bit and get something like a TS 500W.

 

Save up for this GPU: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-video-card-r9270xcdj4

And this PSU: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-xfxts550w

 

It's quite a bit more expensive, but it would be worth while with that CPU.

I used to be quite active here.

But the question is, do I really need 650W? I don't have that much money :(

No, you would be fine with 430-500 it's just that none of us want you to get that psu just because it is cheap (it has heat related issues that can cause fires), what's your budget for both the gpu and psu, as I might be able to find a replacement or maybe someone else will ?

What about  http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Continuous-Warranty-Supply-100-W1-0500-KR/dp/B00H33SFJU/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1448431305&sr=1-1&keywords=EVGA+500W

 

I have a total of ABOUT $150. That'll change a bit but I don't think I can go more

Okay. The power supply will last you a long time.

BTW, don't get this one. It's not very high quality, it was before EVGA made awesome PSUs. It's cheaper, but not worth it.

It'll be fine. Just upgrade the PSU when you upgrade to a bigger PSU and or start to overclock the CPU.
