It only has 2 of the four PCI-e power connectors the 2x GTX 560Ti will need. You'll need to use molex to PCI-e adapters for the extra PSU connections.
It does have the right amount of power for your system. And it has a 5yr warranty.
Quality & performance wise - it's a bit less than 'OK'. Did you get a good price?

Quality & performance wise - it's 'OK' but not brilliant.

It has 3 molex i think will that be enough for two adapters?
I am building a similar spec build with two 560 ti 's I used this calculater http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp to determine what I needed for a psu . Keep in mind the available amperage on the 12v rail is as important as the total watts of the psu . The calculator spit out 672w as the reccomended . Good luck with the build

I think you'll be 'ok' with just 3 - 2 on 1 and 1 on the other.
Ok then thanks

Hello i have been thinking of getting another GTX560ti for some time will this PSU:The 650w Coolermaster GX be enough for SLI GTX560ti
Specs:
i5 2500k
1tb HDD
GTX560ti
I wouldn't recommend running SLI with a GX650 = it hasn't reviewed very well and is a rather old design by today's standards.(poor voltage regulation).
Something that's very important in regards to dual gpu's.
You'll eventually have to buy another unit imo!
