Well I know about this thing and probably will buy one.
Any guess if 620W Seasonic psu (https://seasonic.com/product/m12ii-620-evo/) is enough for AMDs 1*280 and 2*270? Like I'm thinking its like 250W+2*150=550W + other components and it fits perfectly.

I'm using it, nd it says it's not enough. Load wattage just from gpus 633W. Which is not even possible. Max power from PCIe is 75W, from 6pin:75W, from 8pin:150W. So 270 can take up to 150W and 280 up to 300W. And 300W seems insane - I would expect 290 to consume that not a 280.

No!
The only one true power meter is something like this:

Is there any site, calculator, that tells what is the true power consumption of a given card with (stock) settings? Like I'm using: https://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator but don't know if it is accurate or it tells more then the real consumption actually is.
Thank you.
