The PSU is Dell 685W. &nbsp; Not sure how to determine if this is enough. &nbsp; Everything seems to work OK. &nbsp; What would indicate it was not enough?

Which is higher spec, AMD FirePro W4100 (FireGL) orSapphire Radeon R9 270X 4GB?

A monitor or a display is an electronic visual display for computers, usually comprised of the display device, circuitry, casing, and power supply. The display device in modern monitors is typically a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) thin panel, while older monitors used a cathode ray tube (CRT) about as deep as the screen size. They are connected to the computer via VGA, DVI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, LVDS or other proprietary connectors and signals.
