[SOLVED] will this power supply is good enough to run gigabyte rx 580 or i should buy new ?

Solution
have to agree, good example here shows why TT's TR2 series is not very good, it's a comparison of the TR2 vs other units - the charts clearly show the TR2 being the worst of the bunch and way out of ATX spec and could damage components. Even the older CX green beats it by a good margin lol

agree a new 500w unit would be ideal and agree a new corsair gray label 500w+ would be a much better choice than that TR model.

Edit - added "500w+" for clarity :)

This one is currently discounted to $50, and has a $20 mail in rebate that you can get you $20 back in the mail.

And to anyone out there that immediately wants to say something about the CX series, this isn't a green label, and it's the new 2017 model so the issues that plagued the older models that everyone likes to harp on about aren't present in this model.

There are no good 500w CX units, the good units with the newer platform are 450w, 550w, and 650w.
