Hi,
These are my system specifications :
CPU: AMD 8350 stock speed
CPU cooler: Corsair H100i with only one fan
RAM: 16GB 1333MHz
1 500GB WD blue
1 2TB WD green
GPU (s): Gigabyte Nvidia geforce GTX 650 Ti boost
Asus Nvidia geforce GTX
550Ti
3 case fans
(Damn that took long on a mobile keyboard)


Will this work with a Corsair CX600M power supply or will I have to upgrade?

One more thing, here is a picture of my hand next to the space left for airflow,http://imgur.com/O2tUBMD, I am not sure if this is enough for adequate cooling, can you please tell me?
 
Solution
600W is enough but I wouldn't go with the corsair cx series, they are low tier. The Seasonic S12-II 620W 80+ Bronze Certified Wired Power Supply, XFX 650w XTR Gold Fully Modular Power Supply Unit or even the XFX TS 550W 80 Plus Gold certified Power Supply Unit will be fine with your GPU. You won't overload the PSU.
In terms of cooling, it will be a bit cramped but theres not much you can about that aside from good cable management and a good fan setup
I wasn't planning on SLI, the 650 doesn't even support it, I just don't want to overload my psu or block the fans off and I don't trust myself to accurately predict if it will be alright the way it is

Well thank you. You don't know how much this has helped me, but you think it'll be alright until I get a chance to get a better psu? About the fans I know it's a bit of a normal sight on dual card systems but I was checking. Thank you
 


Your cx600 psu will do. But I'd recommend replacing asap!
