So guys i wanna know if anyone of you have heard of HIS Digital. It makes graphics card etc. Some people say that (in my country) they do make good Gfx cards. i wanna know cuz i am going to buy one in a couple of days. Should i go for:
Sapphire's card i-e :

Or this HIS' card i-e:
http://www.hisdigital.com/un/product2-765.shtml.

According to this His' website they say and i quote "HIS has won over 1500 awards with AMD graphic solution from major media worldwide."

Now i wana know should i go for them or not cuz their card is a bit cheaper but its not like i buy something and it gets screwed after a short time.

So some help anyone plz ? TY 😀
 


650+ is more than enough though this could vary on aftermarket versions and which 7000 series you're getting.

For example the Sapphire 7970 requests 750W, but thats a high end card.

You'd be fine with a 7870 or Nvidia's equivelant the 660.

for a 650W psu I'd suggest the XFX, Corsair TX or Seasonic version

I personally am getting a XFX 650W
 
A single card for a 650w PSU is more than enough. Even the 780 and r9 290x would run on that. It's just AMD and Nvidia's strategy to exaggerate the minimum PSU requirements so that they don't get sued if something goes wrong with the power supply. I have a 530w PSU, and it has 43amps on its 12v. The amperage on your 12v is more important than the total wattage it says. You can read further more about this issue on other threads.

But pertaining to your issue, I suggest that you buy that CM PSU. Using generic PSUs are scary. It might blow up your whole rig. Simple google will show you that PSU blowing up would damage the whole rig. Even brand new PSUs blow up, but that's a very slim chance.
 


SO if i go for that 450W for 6670 its ok right ? cuz atm i have 350W only
