HI,
I have a i5-4690k processor and and sapphire r9280 vapor x video card.To supply these i bought a cooler master thunder 600w PSU (my friend recommended it).I don't my graphics card to be harmed in anyway. Will this PSU work ., if not will it affect the card's performance or card itself.
 


Hi - Yes, the CM Thunder 600w will power your system OK. However, it is not Haswell certified
(the 4690k is a Haswell CPU). You can still use it, but you should disable the c6/c7 sleep state in BIOS.

i'm planning to replace it with a crosair 650w psu...will that make a big difference??
 


What Corsair model # ? - Like CM some Corsairs are Haswell ready and some are not. You don't need
600 or 650w either, but it won't hurt.
