i want to upgrade my GPU to sapphire rx 550 pulse 4gb but i dont know if it will work.
I think my motherboard is old.
Here is my PC specs:
Motherboard:Gigabyte 78LMT USB3 R2
RAM:8 GB
PCU:AMD fx 8300 3.30 GHz
500 W PSU

Is this all good?

 


What's the make and model of your power supply?
 


Xilence Model xp500r7
 


Should work, never heard of the brand but it does have 32amps on the 12v rail. I'd replace the PSU when possible.
 


Do you have some suggestion what can i buy?
 


Depends on your budget. Any 500W PSU from Corsair, Seasonic, or EVGA will do.
 
500W indicates older models, 550W is mostly newer models. While few and far between, there are models from Corsair, Seasonic, and EVGA that I would not recommend. Check back here before you buy anything.

The point of the low-powered RX 550 is that you don't have to upgrade your power supply. Might as well go with the RX 560, which again is meant to not have to upgrade your power supply.

That said, if you care about your system you should upgrade to a decent quality power supply.
 


So what should i buy?
Budget isnt problem.
