Will my psu be enough

[lazypanda800]

I have intel core i7 4770k at stock,600 watt corsair psu,8gb corsair vengence ram, msi z87-g43 motherboard and cooler master hyper n520 cpu cooler and my pc case is a NZXT Gardian 921 and as for gpu i have a xfx r9 270x. My question is will i have enough power to run crossfire with 2 r9 270x, 1 4gb and the one i have now at 2gb memory. Also everything is stock for now.

NO, u cant crossfire with ur current PSU. Go for PSU atleast with a minimum of 750W.

I wouldn't trust a 600w Corsair for two 270xs. I would be looking in the 650-750w range and at a high quality unit too. Some of Corsair's psus are good(AX, GS, HX, RM, TX series), and some are not.

I wouldn't risk that, if i were you.
Get a 750w 80+ bronze rated, as you are risking heavy amount of gpu's.
Power fluctuations and other paraments will be covered it.

Is there any gpu that I can crossfire with my xfx r9 270x and keep my psu but also increase performance?

 

[qbsinfo]

yes you can xfire 270x

if you have the cx600 there are 46 amps on the 12 volt rail and the gs600 has 48.

though both have two 8 (6+2) pin pci-e connectors. you would need two 8 to dual 6 pin adapters. one for each card.

@ 120 - 130 watts the 270x is hardly a power hungry card. an OC'd 4770K system typically uses ~170 watts.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

The CX600 isn't Haswell compatible and should be changed.

 

[lazypanda800]

On the corsair website its said it is likely compatible and I have had no problems with it.

 

[Pondering]

It is just a matter having the power supply die on you and possibly damaging your other components. The 2x 6+2 PCI-E was meant to power one video card with 2 6/8 pin power connections.

I just asked this question for if I want to crossfire in a year or 2 and I will buy a higher watt psu if I decide or just buy a new gpu that better.
