can you tell me more about their hardware, for example, which manufacturer and which chipset does the board have.
Theoretically, you can use the Vega APU graphics and the RX cards at the same time. the drivers are the same. and so you could hook up a main monitor to the motherboard and run with the Vega11 APU chips, and everything else from 2-4 more monitors or VR devices via the graphics card / cards on the PCI-E3.0x16 or to 2 PCI-E 3.0 ports as 2-way Crossfire composite (x8X8) HDMI or display ports operate ..
The faster Rx560 always matches the slower performance of the RX550 2GB. No matter if it is installed on PCI-E port 1 or 2. in a RX550 and a RX560 you can do that already .. since work with 128bit cards .. with a 550/560 128bit card and a RX570 4GB would run extremely slowed down as the RX570 delivers 256bit and so the bitrate to about 50 % would be reduced and the remaining GPU performance would fall on RX560 or 550 power level.
In addition, the power supply is much too weak for that .... even for a single RX560 / 570 card in their system
Let's put it up, they have one
Ryzen 5 APU AMD should work with a maximum of 65 watts ... The question is whether this value was determined with or without Vega 11 GPU use or not. If we still have 5-10% overclocking we quickly get to 75-95 watts
Mainboard with accessories (M.2 SSD, other Sata drives (SSD, HDD, BR / DVD) fan, CPU watercooling complete set or custom water cooling with pumps and RGB lights (Bullshit) and USB devices (External HDD / USB3.0 or 2.0 are synonymous to the 50-100 watts depending on what is still connected.
plus the graphics card / cards
the RX550 and the RX560 with 2GB GDDR5 are at 75-85 watts with 4GB GDDR5 it can be 85-125 watts when turned on the card for benchmarking or overclocking is all on the card.
a MSI Radeon RX 570 ARMOR 8G OC draws at least 150 watts at normal settings and a monitor 175-200 watts in OC mode and more than 200 watts when playing on 3 Full HD monitors in a resolution of 5760x1080 at 60Hz or more up to 7680x4320 in 30Hz over 2x 4K monitors at WQHD with 144hz or 4k resolution which is down-calculated with Down Semlping to Full HD, this goes far beyond the 150 Watts of the manufacturer angeaben in the power consumption.
makes at normal settings 350-400 watts with overclocking 450-550 watts for the whole system
Generally you should always provide 100-150 watts more EPU power for a gaming system.
even if it works with 400-450 watts for the transistors and capacitors but that is already the highest load limit .. on my first 450 watt EPU I have gradually burst the capacitors (GTX6702GB-OC)
at 600 watts, the voltage transformers and capacitors in the power cord echoed much longer .. and latest power supplies with 600 watts or more consume now only what the system actually needs
for 2 graphics cards, it should be at least 800-1000 watts
I would install a 600-800Watt ATX 2.3 EPU rated Bronze + or even better in consumption, with Active PFC and over and under volt protection
with 2x 2 Pin6 + 2 cables for 2 graphics cards and 2 EATX 12 Volt plugs for the motherboard.
if you want to connect 2 PCI-E cards via Crossfire.
I use myself for 3-4 years a Xilence power supply 800W ATX 2.3 power supply that could also drive 2-3 graphics cards or a dual board with 2 CPU / APU, s and 2-3 graphics cards.

from my point of view and without again in the next 24 months in things GPU upgrade .. sell the RX550 for 40-50 bucks if possible and place it for 110 a rx570 with 4gb a rx580 with 8GB it already from 159- $ 169 or € buy. And for everything to play in the next 2 years should be enough.
Incidentally, 2 graphics cards as 2way xfire composite do not bring the really double performance but only about 25% more with two x8 PCI-E 3.0 ports, so an RX580 on a PCI-E3.0x16 is much more effective than 2 or 3 cards in a x8x8x4 Over 2 PCI-E3.0x8 and one more PCI-E2.0x4 port .. with a maximum of 20 PCI Express lanes on the current FM2 + and AM4 boards with A88X or X350-470 chipsets .. even the new X570 board has only 28- 32 PCI-E Lanses are installed, of which 20 can be used for the GPU and the remaining for the 2-3 M.2 / NVMe SSD ports. for 40 lanes or more you would have to get an X99 board for Intel CPU, s or an AMD threadripper board to use 2 graphics cards over 2 PCI-E 3.0 x16 ports.
