Planning to buy new GPU for my existing system.

[Sagarmnaik01]

I have a system with AMD FX 6300 CPU and motherboard Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3. im planning to buy AMD Sapphire Radeon NITRO+ RX 480 4GB GDDR5 DUAL HDMI / DVI-D / DUAL DP OC 11260-02-20G Graphics card. Will my motherboard support this graphics card? will i get full performance with this? as my motherboard has PCI-2.0 and this Graphics card is probably PCI-30.

Your Motherboard will support your new GPU but make sure u have the right PSU

can u suggest me the right PSU??? Right now i have Circle PSU of 400W. How much watts is recommended?

Yes it will support it. PCIE is backward and forward compatible, you will just be using the lower version of the two.

AMD recommends 450w,but i think 400 would do...If u plan on overclocking u may consider a better PSU

Generally speaking. If the Power supply came with the case most are completely junk. a good quality PSU is what your looking for, not a high wattage one. Most Chinese manufacturers will slap whatever rating their psu can take before exploding I think. Corsair is usually my first choice, Coolmaster and a couple others aren't bad either. Don't cheap out on a psu and it will last you years and years. (also usually get nice cabling in the package)
