So I was wondering should I put +20 pl on my r9 380x oc edition (sapphire) and can my 600w coolermaster psu handle it?

600w cm? I'm concerned now...

Is it enough for 20+ power limit?

oh, that one... it's not a fire hazard, but be warned... it uses group regulation, which i've seen go wrong with many midrange-high end pc's

Unsure if anyone knows what they are talking about, but regardless the PSU 20+ is fine. Even on a 500W PSU. Hell max it out and get a high OC.
