I'll make this quick.
Hardware:
Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P
AMD FX 6300
Sapphire R9 280X Vapor-X
The PSU is an XFX TS. I think it's the 650W version, but I'm not 100% sure.
Anyway, whenever I play games on medium to high graphics settings (aka whenever my GPU is under load), the PSU fan starts going crazy and turns loud as heck.
I've gathered that my GPU is pretty demanding in terms of how much power it uses, so I figured that for some reason this power supply can't really handle the R9 280X under load (although it should definitely be fine in terms of wattage).
I'm now looking for a PSU that is guaranteed to behave properly with the specific GPU that I have, I don't want to get a new one and then run into the same problem again.
