I'm planning to buy an R9 270X after my dad wouldn't let me get a graphics card on my pc for 6 >>>MONTHS<<<. I looked in my case and saw that on the power supply there was only 4 pin power cables (I think they are molex power cables) and I saw on a thing about the graphics card that it needed 1 6 pin PCI-E power cable and a molex. Does the card come with the 6 pin that attaches to two four pins? BTW the the cpu won't be bottle necking it cause its an i7-4770k (I've been playing Skyrim, Just cause 2, Portal 2, Payday 2, and Tom Clancys Ghost Recon Phantoms all with the lowest quality!!! (With a $1000 dollar computer!!! (And my dad says my computer can do video editing (facepalm) you need a graphics card for it). Please Help peoples I really need it cause I'm planning to get crysis 3 and I wanna play it on ultra!

Your power supply has 4 "6+2 pins" which will be 4 cables that each have a 6 pin connector and in the same wire bundle with each a 2 pin in case of cards that use an 8 pin connector. That power supply will work perfectly fine with a 270x.
I have a Corsair Enthusiast Series TX 750 Watt ATX/EPS 80 PLUS Bronze (TX750). I would think that it would be fine because it's from a name brand and I'll never use all of the 750 watts in it (my dad got it on sale but it was still brand new).
