For 280 gpu. How much power do I need

[WoodenMarker]

A decent 500w should be plenty. 

If you link us to where you're shopping, we could give some specific recommendations. 

 

Moving thread to Cases and Power Supplies--please post in the correct sub-forum in the future.

Depends on the rest of the system, especially the CPU.

 

If it's a kind of standard setup, I'd say a good 500W PSU as allways.

with my 280 i need at least 700W according to the page. i have a 750W just in case but the radeon cards all say they need 700+ watts of power which is a little weird. my friends both have 280(x)'s and all bought 700+ W PSU just to be safe because as they say on the page 700W min ususally.

Ignore the psu recommendations on the graphics card websites as they are generally highly inflated to cover their butts.
