So i got a rx 480 4 gb. There is one problrm as it requires a 8-pin pcie cable and my 450w power supply has only a 6 pin, i did by a adapter and i know it will draw more power but i would like to know the power consumption of the 4gb one as google only give details about the 8 gb one. Thank you.

Both 4GB and 8GB versions use similar power usage, around 150W. Your PSU should handle it fine, while the card draws about 75W over the PCIe cable, with the rest coming from the motherboard.
