Power supply query

Is the antec vp450p continuous psu enough to power an Athlon 750k black along with an r9 270x, couple of sticks of ram and 2 hard drives plus couple of case fans

You should be ok, the review does look ok for a budget PSU:

But the Superflower below would be a better bet:

YOUR BASKET
1 x SuperFlower Golden Green HX 550W "80 Plus Gold" Power Supply - Black £46.99
Total : £56.59 (includes shipping : £8.00).

Thnx for the reply. If I were to get that psu I would need to drop from a 270x to a 260/265. If i do that would there be a noticeable dif in games

It should be fine if it has the 2 x 6pin connectors that are required.
