First of all hello :) i was looking for an answer on a lot of forums but could not find one now lets start on my problem.
i have a Power box atx-700w (200w real on the store website) it says and today i got a r9 270x which needs 2x 6 pin power connectors.This psu does not have any. I have 1 sata to 6 pin power connector. can the psu provide enough power for the gpu or should i hook my other psu for it atm i cant buy anything else.
also i did not do research for the gpu because it was random i got it as a gift
edit: as much as i understand the 700w is peak with the gpu and my configuration its around 301w as it says in the coolermaster watt calculator so will the 700w (200 real) provide 300 watts
also i plan to connect the sata to pci on different rails.

Two presumably low quality PSUs mean twice the chances of something going wrong and even more expensive repairs/replacements.

Saving $40-50 by forgoing a proper decent quality PSU could turn into a costly mistake if it ends up ruining your PC.

as stated above i have 1 laying around can that one do the job? 1 6 pin on this and other one on the other power supply so it will draw like 200 watts from the one and around 100 from the other one will that be a safer option?
