Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-F2A68HM-H
Ram: 8 GB DDR3 Ram
PSU: XFX TS 550W
GPU: MSI R9 270X 2 GB GDDR5

I recently upgraded my PC to be able to play games, I have already put the new hardware but I am not sure if I did everything needed, I plugged all the proper connections to the video card and motherboard and I let AMD raptor update my driver for the GPU but I am not sure if I will run into any issues with the drivers from the APU and if the power will be enough for all my hardware and video card and I want to add a extra fan for cooling making a total of 2 120mm fans any recommended upgrades or any help would be appreciated.
 
The R9 270x needs about a 450~500w so it should work. Uninstall your video drivers and shut down your PC. Install the video card and plug the monitor into the video card. Start the system to download new drivers for the 270x and install. It may require a restart after the install and see how it goes.
