Hey guys just wanted to ask you all if a corsair TX650M could handle 1 Sapphire R9 290 along with 2xATI 5770?

The R9 gets the 2 PCI-E wires while th other 2 cards get their power from a 6-pin to molex connector.

Please suggest a good PSU for now as well as one that could power 2 R9 290s and @ ATI 5770s.

Thanks . :)

the tx650m will will be fine, the hx750 would be much better

EDIE: sorry i didn't see that "2 r9" the first time. you will need a 1000W psw if you wish to run all three cards.

i don't understand why on earth would you need them for??

Not so sure, I've investigated and found out that R9 290x uses 350W on max, and one HD 5770 uses 285W on max.
When summed up you get a consumption of 920W!
