Can this power supply handle the RX 480?

What do you think? I plan buying a mid-end video card right now but I can't afford a power supply at the same time as well.

Always list all your parts with PSU questions.

VS is dead last in terms of quality in the Corsair LINEUP.

A Radeon RX 480 needs 30 amps on the 12v + rail and at least a 500 - 550w power supply usually with 1 - 6 pin PCIE power connection.
