What are the rest of your system specs?

No , problem .
HD 7870 needs two 6 pin power connectors ,draws up to 175W and 500W good psu is recommended . CX500 has 2x (6 +2 pins ) . So , the card sshould work with this psu.

should work but what is your current system?

it will be enough, as long as you're running one cpu and one graphics card, and less than 5 hard drives.

It will be fine, but if you want a 5 year warranty then this one would be just as good if not better for the same price

What is crossfire? Also Do you think this Graphics card can handle games like ArmA or DayZ and BattleField on high settings?
