PSU for R9 280x Toxic

[Guest]

Will this PSU Thermaltake Smart SPS-730M 730W ATX 12V 2.3 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply be enough for R9 280x Toxic and does it have all the cables that the card needs for power?

You need a good 600+W psu from tiers 1, 2a or 2b of http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html

Your psu is not. Try Seasonic 620, XFX 650 or Antec HCG 620M instead.

What about Corsair GS 700? Will it work?

Its not from tiers 1, 2a or 2b. So its not as good quality.

Can you explain what is tier 1, 2a, 2b?

Tier one - The highest quality and most stable PSUs available on the hardware market today. Highly recommended for any situation

Tier two class A - Excellent quality units, if not, as good as the Tier one class of units. For people who have a limited budget, but still want a reliable unit for the price

Tier two Class B - Lower life span or slightly lower power output than rated. These are still great units, all of which are still within standard ATX specifications

Thanks for your answer but this article: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1804779/power-supply-unit-tier-list.html says that GS 700 is Tier 2 class A.

It was in the link I provided. Read what we're telling you or the thread is a waste of time.
