[Guest]

Hi can i run the Sapphire r9 280x vapor-x 3 gb on a cooler master B600w psu or i need better i have now asus gtx 650 ti boost 2 gb and its ok,but i read that for r9 280x vapor-x you need 750w psu???

and my spec are:

ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0
DIMM 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Kingston HyperX Genesis
COOLER MASTER B600w PSU
HDD 1TB WesternDigital 7200rpm
CPU AMD FX-8350

and i don't overlock!!!

I doubt the CM B600 quality and efficiency, and if I were you, I would immediately change to PSU for something better. PSUs from Antec, Corsair , Seasonic , and EVGA are pretty good

the card is calling for a 750W psu with 2 8 pin connectors so the card will have a max power load of 375w tho i doubt it could get there even under water cooling and a huge overclock.

for best results i would go for a 750w psu at a minimum. your 600w may not have the amps to run the card. sorry if this is not what you wanted to hear
