WF3X R9 290

[Swegly]

Will my tx650 Power supply be enough for the windforce r9 290 and all of my other Components? I do plan on buying an h100i with more fans later also.

Sure.

[Swegly]

Sure.

Not to convincing...

[Mansel]

Should be fine, are u overclocking?

The card can eat around 300W, CPU max 100W and other things eat almost nothing, so give it 100W and you're at 500W. Atleast 150W headroom on a very high quality PSU. Nothing to worry about.

It comes overclocked. On the gigabyte website also it says 600W PSU requirement so they have to have added most Power eating parts to rack it up to that after the Graphics cars just to make sure you would be fine.

You're good to go, with headroom to overclock as well.

where did you buy it from, is the non-reference cards released?

Bought it from newegg. Some non reference cards are released such as the Gigabyte Windforce r9 290 or the sapphire r9 290 tri-x(actually non-x version)
