Is there any compatibility problems with A7N8X and Radeon 97

your friends are correct in that your psu can handle the load but that psu will be running nearly 100% under full load and the psu will not last no where near the 100k MTBF. for a psu, you want to keep the load between 30% and 70% for longevity.
