Question Is 430w enough?

[k3nn00]

Hello so I just got a new GPU its a Asus ROG Strix RX 560 4GB and I was just wondering if my Xilence 430watt PSU will be enough.

It should be enough yeah.

Recommended wattage is 400W so you should be fine.
But dont be suprised if it explodes one day, that psu is garbage.

I have to agree with Master tho. Just because you used it just fine so far doesn't mean that psu is not quite low quality, and i would for SURE look to upgrade that too. NEVER EVER cheap out on the psu. You can get some decent psu (way better than you currently have) for under 80 eu/dollars.

Sharkoon wpm zero gold if you want to save some more money, Sharkoon silenstorm cool zero if you can spend 100 eu/us.

If not check this list and look for the b tier https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/psu-tier-list-psucultists.3624094/ . You can go as low as c tier but i would stick with the b tier cuz again, never cheap out on a psu.

It all depends on your budget really.
