Psu calculators for the most part are highly inaccurate. You're better off just posting a parts list and asking for feedback from those who have more experience.

It is actually an upgrade :D. Maybe later on, but now I just need a pc, that runs MW2, MW3, CS:GO well and that is enough for me today.

Are you buying all those parts or just upgrading the gpu?

Isn`t that little too much? ~300W Wouldn`t be enough? calculator shows me even 250W is enough :/

A 300w psu would be enough. He was just referring to the cx430.

That's a bit of an awkward system. 

 

What are your current specs?

Where are you shopping/located? Budget?

What do you use the system for?
