Hi all. I recently acquired a Sapphire r9 280X Dual X http://. I'm upgrading from a Radeon HD 6870 and also need a new power supply. My current rig is.
Processor: i5-3550 (3.3 gHz)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H
RAM: 8 gb 1333 mHz ddr3 (2 x 4gb)
Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar Blue 500 GB SATA III 7200 RPM
Disk Drive: DVD RW AD-7280S ATA SATA
Fans: Stock fans 2 for the case and 1 on the processor
External devices: keyboard, mouse, headset, sometimes a controller
Graphics: Sapphire Radeon HD 6870
Power supply: Antec VP450P 450W
Power supplies always confused me a bit as to what I'm looking for in both watts and amps. Could you guys help out?
Much appreciated. Cheers.
