Hi guys!

First I am new on this forum, so sorry if I write something stupid or do something stupid and sorry because of my English too.

So... I have got a Sapphire R9 280 graphic card right now and an AMD Pehnom II X4 955 Black edition. I want to change my CPU and I am decided to buy an FX 8320 (not decided yet which one, the normal one, or the "E"). My question is that: I have got a HKC V-POWER 650W PSU. I know HKC is not a good brand of PSUs, but I had lot of problems with Chieftecs and FSPs when I changed my PSU after the R9 280 arrived so I bought this one, and it works fine now. (before this I had a HKC PSU for 5 yearsand never had any trouble with it.)

So: Is this PSU enought to run an FX8320 and an R9 280 Graphic card?

I asked a lot of people on forums in my country, but they didn't helped to me, just said I am stupid and go f**k myselft if I bought a PSU like this. Well... thats not helping to me. I would be really happy if I would not have to buy a new one. Just only because of the brand I don't want to buy a new one, only if it's not enough to the PC.

Thank you for your answers and your help! :)
 
I know the quality of it and I know what you linked are good PSUs, but they are expensive. I said I just want to change the PSU if it's not enough for the config, only because of the HKC name I don't want to change it.
 


Hungary. The main problem is that I know there are lot of nice PSUs but they are really expensive. I want a middle coasted one that I can pay with my money I have :)
 


So how much do you want to spend on this unit? I have currency conversion tools so I can check and see what is available.
 


Well, I want between 15K-20K Forints, thats between 50 and 75 euro mabye I think. I am looking this one now: FSP HYPER 600
