Which card to buy?

[cuziride777]

Hey there guys!
I'm using a 2200G PC and now want to add a discrete graphics card. I came upon the RX 570 4 gigs model, which is really a good card, but I want to know if my 450 watts PC can handle it without any hassles. I won't OC anything. Please help-
R3 2200G 3.5 GHz
B450 Mobo
Dual Channel 8 GB 2400 MHz
1 TB Hard Drive 7200 RPM
Corsair VS 450 80+ White

Thank you so much!

450 is very close to the mark, ideally you need to upgrade your psu to at least 550w.
It will work, but the stress on it could be too much.
It is risky.

If it was the CX 2017 version or CXM Grey label Corsair then I would say it would be fine the those VS PSU's are very low quality, I wouldn't risk it with that GPU. Besides the PSU though that would be a good GPU to pair with the 2200G.

Your power supply would technically be enough, but for peace of mind I would upgrade to a 500-550W PSU.

Something like this, for example: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151119

Ok, thanks dude. Then I think I'd just go with a 1050 Ti.

That's kind of a shame, the RX 570 is such a better card for the same price but when you do eventually upgrade from the 1050 ti or get a better CPU make sure to get a good quality 550-650W unit such as the Seasonic Focus Gold. With a PSU like that you could easily handle a CPU like the 2700X and GPU like the 2080 ti for example.

+WildCard999 I didn't want to sound ignorant mate, I said I'd buy the 1050 Ti because I can't upgrade my power supply for some personal reasons. Anyway, thanks for helping.

I understand, just figured I recommend eventually upgrading the PSU for future parts and that 1050 ti is going to be a nice upgrade over the Vega 8 iGPU on the 2200G.

RX 570 is the good card but I will suggest you to get RX580 if its fit your budget also you need to upgrade your power supply as 450w is not enough for RX570 and also for RX580
