Yeah that looks good, EVGA is pretty decent and at least their RMA process is really good. Plus it's a good price.

I mean, that psu manufactuer is widely used and known in Poland ( that's where i live) so rma shouldn't be a problem.

And the rx 480 8 gb is over 250$ budget in my country its more like 300$

 

Just go for the 4GB, you'll be unlikely to go over that even at 1440p. My 470 is 8GB, and only fills up when I'm modelling/rendering. Otherwise it just doesn't happen, you're more likely to run out of GPU power than memory.

How much can you spend on a PSU? (in your own currency) 

like 200-250 zł (50-60$)

No, its not a great idea. the EVGA 450b only has x1 6+2 connector, you need 2 in total for an RX480 and the adapter.

Molex is a bad idea for powering a GPU because it stresses the rails that were meant for low demand things like fans.

shipping would cost me 150 zł (35$) so yeah...

That sucks. Either way, the VS450 and the 450B don't have enough connectors.

3 x 4-pin Molex 

And i don't know if i can trust this manufactuer, but fits pretty nice in budget.

 

 

It has 3x 6+2 pin connectors, and XFX makes good power supplies. 

 

It's a Tier 3 power supply rather than the Tier 5/6 that were considered earlier.
