R9 270X CF requires ideally 42Amps & a 700W PSU minimum

The Corsair VS 650W has 50 Amps on the 12v rail, so this is fine. However you require 4x 6 pin power connectors for 270X CF , this PSU only has 2.

Recommended PSU
XFX Pro/XXX 650W semi/modular 80+ Bronze (£63): http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1650xxxb9

This PSU has 53 Amps on the 12v rail & 4x 6+2 pin power connectors. And is better quality, Seasonic OEM.
