Hi im buying an r9 390 used for 260, i currently have an evga 500w 80+ psu and my cpu is a i5 4690. Will it be safe to run this gpu using my current power supply?
 
Solution
It'll be pushing it. It's enough power officially, but the EVGA 500w is a mediocre psu that's not meant to be pushed so hard. I would expect an early death after a while. I recommend an upgrade.
