    what psu should i get for Sapphire NITRO R9 380X 4G D5 AMD 4GB card

    Use pcpartpicker.com, Input your components (build a new PC). It will tell you your estimated wattage. Pick something 100watts above that. If you don't know all of your hardware use CPU-Z. http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html

    Looking for a new GPU for my T3500

    480 is advertised to be 200USD in the US, so I'm assuming it will be considerably more expensive where you're from considering the 950 can be bought for 140USD in the US. If 200 is your budget then you've already answered your own question, go with the 950.

    AMD huge problem

    I missed the "m"270x lol. Read too fast. Well that severely limits the troubleshooting. It sounds like you've been rather thorough. Did the laptop get fairly hot to the touch while playing games? I'm hoping you didn't brick the video card. You would anticipate that it would throttle down before...

    Upgrading GPU & PSU

    798Mhz I'm assuming you took from CPUZ and need to multiply it by two. Get another stick of ddr3 to take advantage of dual channel; fairly cheap single sticks on amazon right now. What is your budget? What kind of games do you play? What kind of gamed do you want to play?

    AMD huge problem

    Have you tried a clean install of windows 7 and just letting windows update install the drivers? Also, were you getting the drivers from AMD or from the manufacturer's website?
