So I'm looking to upgrade my gpu. This is one I found http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00SD9KZCI/ref=asc_df_B00SD9KZCI3856790?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&tag=iceleadscom-20&linkCode=df0&creative=395093&creativeASIN=B00SD9KZCI&ascsubtag=s1440489696730g6uta52378. Was wondering if it would work, and if it's a good option, if there's better for cheaper, whatever.

 

My psu is some random dell 460w

 

Terrible picture but wanted to confirm these are 6 pin http://prntscr.com/88sbzt.

 

Again terrible picture but http://prntscr.com/88scax...

 

 

 

Thanks.

I will, but if it'll work with my current one than I'll probably buy the gpu, and like a week or two later get a psu. Also which 270 or are they all about the same?

Good choice in manufacturer.....gigabyte.

think of the psu as the heart of the pc, if you don't have a good one, it can cause issues for other parts
