You would be much better off with a 750w corsair PSU. The cx 600 will work but you are really cutting it close and it might over-heat or fail in time while gaming. I did some calculations and found that you will need about 690 watts with your configuration and it's always good to have a little extra so you don't put too much stress on the PSU and so it doesn't get too hot.

You will have more than enough power if you were to run just one. One GPU by itself can use more power than an entire computer system, that's why you will need a lot of power to run two.

You won't have to buy it again. If you change a lot of parts on the computer or if you change to a different motherboard, Windows might deactivate but I believe you would just have to reinstall Windows with the product key if that happens.

As I know your wattage is good, but you dont have enough 6-pin connectors. It could run 1 normaly. And theres no need for new windows I only know when you change HDD that you need another one. But with GPU only change you will be 99% fine.

Good setup! I would take Asus p8b75 mobo if I were you...

You can use two HDDs in your system. One old with windows and one new. Ooh and take 64mb HDD if you can.
