R9 270 on a Corsair 450w?

[MeatLoaf]

Would a corsair VX450W handle a R9 270? Coupled with a Xeon L5639 6 Core CPU on a X58 mobo and 6gb ram.

This is the card I was looking at with a single 6 pin power port

Cheers its only going to be an interim upgrade until I get a better PSU then another GFX card.

Do you think the VX450 will be ok with one of these, I know ill have to use a molex to 6 pin for one of the connectors but from reviews ive read of the vx450 say its capable of delivery 500w

Total system load of 319w in this review and that was with a X79 rig with a 3960X.

The Corsair VX450 has a single 33A 12v rail of 396w so you will be fine.

Ive been havng a look about online and its looking like the GTX670 may also be a possibility as its needs similar if not less power than the 270X, which seems a bit strange really.

R9 290 on a 450W here so I'm sure you'll be fine.

Awesome, got a 670 off the MM, so by Wednesday we should know if the VX450 is up to it
