EVGA 650W GQ is the better PSU made by FSP.

CF 290X = 1000W.

The 650 is better, neither will power 2 X 300 watt video cards. Those cards already run on the hot side so watch your temps overclocking.

For a single R9 290x the EVGA is the (much) better choice, but for xfire neither will do. For xfire you will have to look into at least a 850 watts PSU or higher.

For the cost of a new high quality PSU + an extra GPU, you might be better off looking at the GTX1070 after prices settle down.
