Picture of my PSU

I have heard that RX 480 has some problems with power consumption. Is my PSU good enough for a gtx 1060 or a rx 480?

Which one is better, when the price in my country is 395 euro for gtx 1060 and 310 euro for rx 480?

It did with the original driver, it does not have any power problems anymore.

That PSU is more than enough to run an RX 480 or a GTX 1060.

The RX 480 is a far better deal, you are not gonna get 85euros worth of extra performance out of a 1060. They are neck and neck in most benchmarks.

Never tried AMD, heard that their software is <MOD EDIT> and the cards are overheating. Is it true or nvidia bought some people to talk <MOD EDIT> about amd, like they usually do?
 


Overexaggerations by Nvidia fanboys.

The drivers for AMD are perfectly fine and they provide updates as often as Nvidia. Overheating is a new one, simply not true at all. The card had a power issue on its initial release that was corrected 4 days later with a driver update ans is now gone.

Also please watch the language, thanks.
