I'm looking to upgrade my current pc with another MSI r9 270. I was wondering if my Corsair CX600M power supply would be able to handle both cards. Here are my specs;

MOBO: asrock 970 extreme4
CPU: AMD FX 6350 (stock speeds ATM)
CPU Cooler: Corsair H60
GPU: MSI r9 270
HDD: Seagate 3tb
SSD: Samsung 840EVO 120GB
RAM: 8GB of Crucial Ballistix (2 sticks of 4)
PSU: Corsair CX600M
Soundcard: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional
Case: Thermaltake Commander G42
Basic DVD Drive, and 5 fans. (2 for push-pull on the H60 and 3 more throughout the case.

With a 46A 552W +12V rail, it should be fine. OC'ing the card and CPU might take you past the comfort zone for the PSU (80% load), but it will be OK.

your PSU is enough, though the CX is a corsair entry level PSU, and is poor for overclocking, best to not overclock.
