I'm looking to upgrade my nvidia 1060 3gb to a Saphire RX580 8gb Nitro+ but I cant find a power rating for the PSU, Would there be enough power on the current psu or would it be prudent to swap it out aswell if so which would be the best psu to go buy for case compatability?
Also the current 1060 runs at between 95c at idle and can hit 115c when gaming in diablo 3 mid settings and Final fantasy 14 (stormblood expanion) at medium settings is this normal
Many Thanks

The SUPPORT PAGE for that model indicates the power supply to be 300 W internal uATX E-STAR 6.0 Bronze power supply.
On the Sapphire page for the SAPPHIRE NITRO+ Radeon™ RX 580, it states " 500 Watt Power Supply (Suggestion)"
115c is somewhat warm for a graphics card, but not super hot problem
Here is a NVidia page on that subject
