Nah, you're fine with that card. Now if you tried running a 780 or 290 I might question that. Just make sure your psu can handle that as the amd cards are pretty power hungry.

Yeah, im getting a rosewill 500w. right now i have a PNY xlr8 9800gt and i think its time to upgrade. lol Its been good to me for a while now.

I would just make an upgrade to a MSI 280x, not sure what the minimum wattage would be, running it with a 750 watt

Yeah. I dont have that kind of money, lol If you could find a card that is the same price and better than the one i picked out let me know.

Ehh,I would definitely try to stay away from rosewill. I have had a couple of their products before and it something just seems off about them. Not sure what it is about their products but it just seems kinda sketchy to me. I would highly recommend evga/corsair for power supplies as they deliver nice clean power without breaking the bank. Also you will definitely notice some a nice performance increase going from a 9800gt to a r9 270.

Nice! You really want clean power and evga/corsair are where that is at. Have fun building your computer!

EDIT: If you need any help just pm me!

Here's a cheap 280x [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] But beware this is a used card, I like to get things of ebay, sometimes you just catch a really good deal on unopened things, but this is just a little bit more, but remember its used. Make sure to look at the sellers feedback 1st
