Can this power the R9 295x2?

Yes you may need to run either 2 modular cables or look for one that provides 2 sets of 8 pins

You should have no issue powering the R9 295 (running in crossfire with another 295 card). You might even consider a lower wattage PSU depending on what other items you're planning to add in the future.Reference: http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/amd-radeon-r9-295x2-review,12.html

you should go on PC Part Picker and virtually build all your components. it will tell you if it is compatible.

I use the R7 260, and I'm in the acceptable range of power. I don't know much about the R9 295X2, but after looking at the specs for it, this PSU can require 500 W. Depending on the other elements of your computer and their power requirement, you will want to make sure that you are within a plus/minus 70-80% range of the 1000 W this PSU can supply. In other words, make sure your total power requirement from all of your devices is within 700-800 W.

Look up the wattage of the graphics card, but the answer should be "yes", if you don't have too much crazy stuff

Yes. The most important thing is the proper number of PCI-E connectors. I believe that the R9 290 requires 2 8 pin Or 1 6 pin and an 8 pin.Frankly you can possibly get away with a smaller PS provided all the power requirements for all the components are met

Yes anything over 300W is more than enough, however i wouldn't chance it. This is probably the most unstable video card on the market. This model is notorious for blue screens after installation. Buyer Beware.

Don't know exactly. Information should be available from video card maker. I am using with a 380W power supply with no issues, but also no gaming. HTPC application.

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=8573344&Sku;=RLH-102014206 400w , i have 300w and thinking about getting this graphic card and upgrading to 750w.Also, I think you CANNOT upgrade graphic/video card
1770147
Yes you can as long as you don't have a CPU with a very high TDP like one of the AMD 220w monsters, (I used it very successfully with a 280w Dell PSU).

No. It requires a 450w minimum, and installing it with lower could destroy the gpu

You shouldn't, but it depends on what else is on your machine. I have 3 hard drives and added this card, which only uses 110 watts, and it's working fine with a 500w PS. That's one reason I selected this card because of it's low power consumption.

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon-r9-280x-r9-2... <-- shows a benchmark of certain configurations and the power consumption. It draws about 150 watts at a average high.

Should work fine, card is fairly small and does not need more than like a 450w ps.
124003
if your power supply is a 500W or above you will be able to power the card. Provided the rest of your system isn't low end or super dirt old, you shouldn't be bottlenecked or have to worry about hardware compatability.If you mean software wise like drivers, well Nvidia cards like to play well with eachother so having an Nvidia card in there and swapping to another Nvidia should be fine if you do not wish to reload your OS.

This graphics card requires a minimum 350Watts ... I have it with a 600 watt generic psu and pci express x16 1.0 port and works perfect.

Depends on the rest of your hardware. This card uses 150w, you will have to calculate the rest on your own.Minimum recommended is 500w.
1986191
It should work, if anything, at least make sure your PSU is reliable. I had this card running with a 65W CPU on a 300W PSU
2077198
I dont see why not, I run my sapphire r9 280x with no problems. I believe the requirements for that graphics card is a minimum of 650 watts.

Yeah! If you use a Intel processor it will work. I'm using this PSU with an R9 280 and an Intel Core i5. You can simulate the power consumption of your computer on http://www.coolermaster.outervision.com/It is very helpfull.

Yes it will work. I was running mine on a 500W psu. You won't get the PCI-e 2.0 speed from the card with a PCI-e slot, but it will still work.
