My budget is around 750 euros and newegg and stores like that wont work for me cause i live in europe.A non-overclocked R9 290 will draw around 250 watts peak
![]()
http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/R9_290/24.html
add in the rest of your system and I doubt you would ever draw more than 400 watts total for the system so I would say a quality 500-550 watt PSU is plenty. Maybe something like this if you're on a tight budget. $35 after rebate

or a Bronze that has a effective near a Silver, like the Integra R2 serie from Fractal Design or the Seasonic M12II serie ... i used both (still use the latter) with my actual rig (4690K @ 4.6 and 290 @ 1150/1400) the first was a 650w the second is a 750w both are cheap and reliable, the only gold i had was a InWin Commander III Desert Fox 700w and i took it because it was the cheapest Gold rated one i could find (well the review where also good on that one...) past the overprice generated by the gimmickry of that 80+ label ... Bronze is efficient enough for a general use rig (unless server, folder/cruncher, mining (urkh...) rig that need higher efficiency) specially if on a budget.Just grab a Gold rated PSU at the 550Watt mark. I would recommend something like a Seasonic or a Corsair RM series PSU.

Yea I agree, I just normally recommend a Gold one at that level mostly because they have been good to me at that range especially if you have the budget. Though I will say those EVGA 500watt bronze PSU's are pretty awesome for the money.or a Bronze that has a effective near a Silver, like the Integra R2 serie from Fractal Design or the Seasonic M12II serie ... i used both (still use the latter) with my actual rig (4690K @ 4.6 and 290 @ 1150/1400) the first was a 650w the second is a 750w both are cheap and reliable, the only gold i had was a InWin Commander III Desert Fox 700w and i took it because it was the cheapest Gold rated one i could find (well the review where also good on that one...) past the overprice generated by the gimmickry of that 80+ label ...

Yea but its GOLDYeah i normally do also, but look at the system overall GhostRyder, a good quality bronze is more than enough for OP's system. I wanted to say EVGA also, I just couldnt remember it when I made my first post in this tread, they have awsome warranty and have rock steady PSU's.
Until a month ago, I ran my system with a 700 watt PSU from Cougar without any problems at all, it was stabile, but as you know PSU got just about 2 years old and got hit by the hardwarebug, so it was time for a upgrade.
