GPU/ PSU

[Martin O.]

Hello, i cant seem to figure this out myself so i decided to come on here and ask.

 

What is the best Gpu i can run with an 430 Psu.

 

Current Specs: AMD Fx 6300/Stock Cooler

                          GT 730

                          430W Psu

                           Ram: 8gb 

                          Samsung Evo 840 500gb SSD

I am assuming you have a CX430M? 

 

To be honest, a RX 480 or a 1060 would be fine as long as you have the 6pin cable. The Corsair CX430M should include one, if you don't have it you have to buy it, but it can't be a normal one. It has to be the one designed for it.

Thank you.

 

Thats bad. I wouldn't use any graphics card on that. Upgrade that to an EVGA B2, G2, GS, GQ, Anything from Seasonic or XFX (Excluding the XT), Corsair RMi, RMx, HX, HXi, AX, AXi, you have no excuse to cheap out on the PSU, you have an SSD that costs more than your CPU, GPU and PSU combined.

I would make a second thread asking if that PSU is good or not. I don't really know what makes a PSU 'good' or not. All PSUs will have several reports of DOA or just failure. Some people say my EVGA G1 650W is bad, but I haven't had a problem. Its been running for 6+ months and have never failed or shone signs of faiulre. The only complaint I have is that its a bit loud, which can be easily fixed by buying a new fan to replace it.
