Will corsair VS 450 work fine with amd 270x toxic boost?

[harshilsharma63]

I already asked my local shopkeeper thoday morning and he told me about antec vp550 he is giving for 3300 , is it good? Will it be able to handle my system even if i overclock

That's the older model. Newer one is called VP450P. Not sure what the difference is (cannot find specs of older model). Get the newer one.

I got an offer for vs550 , he is giving it for 2500 shipped , i m in really tight budget if this psu can handle my system then i will buy this i dont care about its build quality i am using vs450 frm 4 years and when i will upgrade in future then i will buy a better psu becuz then i will have money or i will change my psu in few months if its really bad .
This is my situation now only tell me if this psu will be able to handle my system even after oc or not?

it will work by my guess but the folks here are trying to explain you that vs is series is not good it might fry your components.
so you're eagerness might end up in fried components and a lot of wasted money you spent on toxic 270x

U mean it will destroy my gpu , cpu , mobo etc? Really? Then i m not gonna buy this man... Cant take risk

even i upgraded my psu to antec vp550p for my sapphire dual x r9 270x.
so at the very least get a vp550p no matter what

 

[srjsrajan]

it will work. it will not fry your components. when you get enough cash, upgrade to a good one. until that period, vs550 can handle your system.

> If you don't care about product quality and just want Wattage, why don't you go for Zebronics or VIP 500 W crap available for ~600 bucks? We are explaining one simple thing from the last two pages but you still don't get anything?
