Please...no...cx...power supplies...

 

Edit:

This is a good power supply:

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1550bbefx

 

it may be only a 550w PSU, but it's one of the better PSUs plus it's only slightly more expensive and your system would easily run on a good 500w PSU anyway.

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

Hello, the reason i went with the MSI r9 380 because i heard the coolers are quiet and the gpu is not hot as like xfx gpus which are kinda budget oriented ...

Are they shit or something ? on pcpartpicker they are popular ...

They don't have the best components...let's just said this is also from personal experiance...it was only an i7 3770k plus a 770 on a cx500...blew up a month after using...

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

In order of quality with AMD cards, Sapphire > MSI > Powercolor and XFX >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Gigabyte & Asus.

 

XFX are fine and they run cool.
