So I have a $200-$240 budget for a video card I was thinking about buying the 7870 ghz edition Gigabyte however My Proccesser is a AMD 4170 it has 125 watt and my psu is only 230 the required psu for the 7870 is 500 watts If i were to buy the 7870 would i be ok or would you reccommend upgrading my psu? Thanks in Advance!
woops! MY PSU IS ONLY 530!!! SORRY FOR THE TYPO
You should be fine:) You'll probably be able to OC your card too if youre into that.
As long as it's a quality PSU, you'll be fine
try to find a nice 7870 XT or GTX 580 on ebay for cheap, those are basically the same card and are pretty cheap this day an age
