Would you mind spelling correctly ?

But yeah a corsair GS600 is good quality PSU. A R9 270 will take around 150 W full power. You will be short, but it should be ok.

Yeah i was wrong about 150 W, it's more like 250 W




So a 600W PSU won't do it. would need at least 750 W to drive this since your CPU TDP (thermal design power) isn't the full load power it uses.

I recommend you this PSU which is currently on a huge promo
