I require a budget PSU that can handle R9 290.. Ill be purchasing at the end of this month and require feedbacks regarding this.. Im on a tight budget of Rs 5k.. Hopefully I wont need to extend ..
Wont be buying new GPU until much later but the PSU needs to be able to handle a headroom of upto R9 290
My other components :
i5 4440
ASUS H81 mobo
4+2 GB RAM
Two 3.5 inch HDDs
Two 120 MM fans

Last bump please, I need more options .. AFAIK there's no seasonic service center near my location, id be more reliant towards corsair or antec

for how much are you getting 290?

Im getting a month old R9 290 for 19.5k from a friend.. Its an ASUS one

Corsair CX500, (Antec has very short cables)
Wait for GTX960 to launch as its 30% slower than GTX970.It comes under 18k.

Can CX500v2 handle a R9 290 ? I dont think so :?

that is exactly what im going to do but the PSU must have enough headroom to handle a R9 290, that is a must !
