    How many watts is too much? RX480

    Hello all, Build specs, https://pcpartpicker.com/b/t3f8TW I just have a quick question. I've been playing around with my XFX RX480 GTR I think I've found the sweet spot at 1370MHz on the GPU and +50 on the memory. It easly stays at 67c, could make it run cooler. So, she seems to run at...
