And do I need a regular fan in my pc or no? and will my power supply have enough outlets to connect to my disk drive, graphics card, fans etc?

 

[nikoli707]

with a fx8320 and a r9-270x that build will play those games at 1080p no problem with at least high settings, some games at ultra maxed out.

Will the rest of the hardware work well to get the most out of the R9 270x?

 

[nikoli707]

yes, everything would work perfect together
