It will power that GPU with no worries but just be aware the CX series PSU struggle in hot climates and are only rated to 30c ambient temp.

It will work, but what series is the PSU? CX? If so, It's not very good, especially not for such high end parts.

r9 draws quite a lot tho. im using 600w psu now too upgrading ltr. when i overclock it tend to whines a lot.

It's a little bit dearer but it's a very good power supply and has a good rebate going at the moment on Newegg. Has a 5 year warranty as well.

if it overheats what will happen will it fry my parts or will it just shutoff?

 

i just checked and it already shipped so im probably stuck with it

They have got some lesser quality parts in them then some other PSU but I doubt it will fry anything. They normally just shut off randomly if temps get around 35c and above. If you can make your PSU draw air from outside of the case instead of inside it will help heaps as in case temps can get crazy hot even in mild gaming sessions
