So I'm building my first PC. Wanted it to be a budget build but went a little overboard. I already have most of the parts except a GPU. I'm looking to get a used GTX 980 for around £150 but I'm worried because the PSU that I bought is only a 450w bronze plus. Should I buy a gtx 980 or get a less demanding GPU?
