Upgrade my pc

[Mario7895123]

I want to upgrade my GPU. Now I have AMD Radeon 7800HD series. I want to upgrade it to AMD radeon R9 280. Can my GPU (current) be changed to R9 280?

Please provide the rest of the specs (CPU, PSU, etc).

It should be able to though. Just have at least 500W PSU, assuming you have an average CPU.

it depends on your CPU and PSU.

so if you have a strong enough CPU which will not bottleneck the r9 280 and a powerful enough PSU(550 watt - 650 watt) that can run the card then you are fine.

Like mentioned get a 600W. I recommend any PSU from tier 1-2. Here's the link to the PSU tier list to assist you out.
