Okay, this psu looks good for the price : http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.641153
Actually I was going to...


hey mate .. whate psu should i take? i went to the asus site and i saw that the card needs at least 300 watt power supply. but i can afford a new psu if i need to
 


A 600 watt decent quality psu should be more than enough.
 


hey mate! uhm.. could you suggest me a 600 watt psu then cause i have no idea about them xD thanks for your time
 


i cant find that one in my country :/ i live in greece and i order online but we dont have all products.. 🙁

 


looks like prices in Greece are even worse than in country where I live. (Latvia)

this one is a bit overkill, but should be okay
 


Why don't you give me a website which also ships to greece so I can post the link of a nice psu.

Actually I was going to recommend a 650w-700w but what you say is true, man they are really overpriced in greece 🙁 . Nevertheless, If you think the above psu i mentioned is more than you want to spend it this will be enough : http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.810907
Although, I really think you should buy Cx600 than rs600, as when it comes to psus, quality is the first thing you want to consider.
