Yea it seems I need to change my PSU for my new graphic card since it is an older one I guess it is a MS Industrial or something.
And I want to get Raidmax rx-500xt, since it is in my price range, is it safe to use has anyone tried it out?
Specs:
CPU: Pentium G850
GPU: GTX 750Ti
RAM: 4GB
Motherboard: H61m-s1

It is a low low budget build, will it work with this powersuplly?

PS. I dont overclock if that is of any info to you guys.

At $50 / 5100RSD, there's not too many halfway decent options I can find in Serbia, unfortunately.

For that setup, I'd be inclined to look at the Antec VP400PC.

It's a budget unit, but solid enough quality. I'd opt for it over a comparably priced Raidmax any day.

The CoolerMaster Thunder 500W is similarly priced, but it's a pretty poor quality unit - a step above the Raidmax, but below the Antec unit.

What kind of budget are you working with? And where are you located? Raidmax PSUs typically are really low quality and I wouldn't suggest using one if possibility avoided.

Is the Corsair CX450 available in your region? It's overkill for those components, but would last you a very long time & is substantially better quality than the Raidmax junk

Well if possible around 50$ is my limit, I am from Serbia so there arent much choices for me Corsair stuff, EVGA are all above 100$, Raidmax are all afordable and this one has some nice reviews for a budget build and would certanly be better than the MS Industrial with no direct 6pin

The Antec one seems nice but concidering the travel costs to get to the shop wich is far a way from me and it doesnt have shipping it would cost me at least 30$ more, the cooler master I can probably get but the shop is kinda shady and will have a friend look into the shop which is in his city. So yea thx, I know I am in a bad situation when it comes to the budget but what else can I do :p .

If I you dont mind me asking, why is the raidmax so bad?? I've been using this shitty MS Industrial for a year and a half and I havent seen any problems it doesnt overheat and the my radeon hd 3850 is using more power that the 750ti and yet the 750ti gives me a black screen when I plug it in many have said it is because my PSU is bad and old since it doesnt have a direct 6pin so I have to use molex, that is why I am looking in to getting a new PSU.
