VS series are not good at quality. Antec vp550p or seasonic s12ii 520 are miles better.

VS series itself is a low end product line. Even CX series is not very good.

vp550p is at 3.5k locally.

The VS series is based on CWT's GPA design, which is a very low end design and uses JunFu(?) caps, which aren't very good. Low efficiency is another disadvantage. The GPA series only goes up to 500W, so Corsair is again inflating the wattage number on the label(not sure).

Avoid 'vs' and Cooler Master psu's. There is no sense in replacing a sub standard psu with another sub standard psu. Atleast get vp550p or seasonic s12II 520 W.

VS550 has 42Amps on 12v rail,
so it should be safe enough for your PC and at budget too.
however if you require better quality you should get Seasonic neo eco 600/500 or Seasonic S12II520/620.

Corsair has discontinued their older vs450 which OP has. CORSAIR - PSU Review Database
If we go by the label it is 30A(360W/12V) net on +12V with each individual 12V output(12V1 and 12V2) with there individual rated amps.
There was some confusion regarding the amperage of +12V net output for the point whether it was 22A(as mentioned on their product page then) or 30A.

The thing with that model(old one) is that there is almost no proper review which throws some light on its actual load distribution during load testing,all we have is a label.If it is 30A net on +12V output then it should run the setup well enough provided there is no heavy OCing.Not saying that 30A rating on +12V of that model is wrong but there is no proper validation of that which i have come across.
Get a seasonic s12ii 520w and you do also be able to overclock your GPU without any worry.One time investement in a good PSU,would be able to handle most of the presently available high-end GPUs.Or at least get vp550p and sell this one.You can even go for vp450p/cx430 bronze but they might not be much of an upgrade instead may be a sidegrade.

Simply avoid Corsair VS Series and go for Seasonic S12II 520.Though Corsair and Seasonic RMA are impeccable.

Both are outta my budget , if any of u have an used psu to sell thn pm me ..
Antec VP550P is the minimum you should consider for upgrade.
BTW, are you also including the cash you'll get by selling your current PSU in the new PSU's budget?
