SAPPHIRE AMD Radeon RX 560 PULSE 2GB + 450 W PSU?

[vtmB10]

Hi, i have a question.
Will a SAPPHIRE AMD Radeon RX 560 PULSE GPU + i5 4460 and 8 gb of ram work with a 450 w PSU ? is the GPU a good upgrade for the gtx 750ti? thanks !

What exact power supply is it?

Depends on WHICH 450W PSU. AS to the upgrade worth: http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-750-Ti-vs-AMD-RX-560/2187vs3926

Tom's GPU hierarchy chart places the 560 two tiers above the GTX 750 Ti. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gpu-hierarchy,4388.html
Not quite their recommended jump for worthwhile upgrading. The GTX 1050 Ti would be better if funds allow.

I don't know what model the power supply is, i only know that it's a 450 w psu..

Does it have a 6-pin PCIe connector for the RX 560 card? If not, the PSU is probably over-rated and not a 'real' 450W.

Btw, you can find out what PSU it is and what its specs are by looking at the label/nameplate on the side of the PSU

yes, it does have a 6 pin connector

the model is : atx 450W P4, i saw it now

There's several 450W with that designation. Doesn't it have a manufacturer name?
But if it has a 6-pin connector, chances are it will be sufficient for the card.

i don't see any manufacturer name on it..

Can you read the nameplate? Look for the +12V specs and report those. Or post a pic of the nameplate.
You're probably alright with the 450W generic PSU if it came with a 6-pin. The RX 560 isn't all that heavy of a load. Just don't try to OC it until we know the PSU can handle the load.
