Hi there,
My cousin will soon replace his R9 270. I wonder whether my PSU will deliver enough power to power that GPU.
My current build:
CPU: Intel Core i5-6600
Mobo: Gigabyte B150M-D3H
Memory: 4x 4GB Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4
PSU: Corsair VS550
Extra devices: 2x 3.5" hdds, 1x 2.5" ssd.
Will that 550W be enough to power both those GPUs?
Thanks in advance,
Rick
Why the answers are gone??

Is this some backup?

According to Perry and some others as well it should* work.

* Not tested (yet!!)

Eitherway, thanks for the answer you gave before.

Hi RickB ,You Can Try the Power Calculator This, I think the database is already compleely and is also able to convince, but not 100% accurate, http://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator
I agree with . From my sense, the power unit should be enough to power your GPU based on my Physics calculations.
calculate all your pc component using power calculator and get the ups that is more than the calculator result

Which power calculator do you recommend on using? There are many out there and they may interpret wrong results.

It seems like the calculator is a bit confusing for a newbie, it may be better if someone makes a noob friendly calculator.
