Can a Corsair cx430 PSU run a R9 270x?

Planning on getting one sooner or later, trying to think if I need a better PSU...
My CPU is an i5 3570k

Depends on the quality of the PSU.

It's a Corsair CX430

branded gold or silver rated is enough...

The CX430 will run it most likely but it only has 1 PCIe power connector so you would need to use an Molex to 6pin PCIe adapter for the other one.

if you have only 1 hdd, go for 270x...its a bronze certified, it will eat 270x.
