Question Buying a new gpu on an old power supply

[veeljko23]

Im considering buying rx 6600 for around 165e. The problem is that i have lc 6650 v2.2 550w. I got it used a year ago and i had no issues with it so far. Of course if im getting the gpu im gonna replace the psu as well but i cannot do it instantly. Should i get it and run it on this psu for a few weeks, a month max, or should i just wait and buy both when i can in a few weeks, the problem is that i sold my tuf gtx 1650 super which is the gpu i was running when i got the psu, and now im using hd 6670 so thats why im in a hurry.

I would strongly suggest avoid using PSUs sold by LC Power. Don't use this model to power up the RX 6600. Would be much better if you upgrade your PSU, after waiting that is.

Wait and buy both. Else you may be back to using your HD 6670 again.
