Hi,
I need to know If the graphics card above will work with my current setup. I have an Intel Core i7-3820 CPU, a P9x79 Asus motherboard and an AMD Radeon HD 6670. I will be using the graphics cards mentioned above to render, design, edit video as well as do some intense gaming. Now my question is which power supply will work with this graphics card and also can I run both cards at the same time with my current setup?. I'd highly appreciate it If you guys went on about answering this questions in high detail as I've never replaced a GPU or a PSU before in my life.

Thanks.

Don't know much about Crossfire but the Cosair CX600 is 600W, semi modular and has 12v@46A which should be good for your R9 270X OC.

Will I be able to run both cards at the same time with this psu? or can I only do this by crossfiring them? If not then should I just uninstall the 6670 and keep the R9 270X?. Sorry I know that's a lot of questions.

@abrahamw@ Hi, im not pretty sure if you can even crossfire 6670 and r9 270x together, they have different shaders processors and overall performance. This may cause the graphics cards to become unstable which will afect your games badly. Most people crossfire two same cards as it the best ways but however soem cards may still be compitable.

I would buy the R9 270X and uninstall the 6670, im pretty sure that the R9 270X will be able to run all the games you throw on it. Edyting with this gpu is extremally smooth so.... Your choice :D 

Hope i ve helped.
