Yes it will work fine.

You can also run even a 3rd card but you would run out of PCIe connectors.


Thank you so much !
I am using this PSU

My motherboard only got 2 pcie shots  Sad

I will built a mining rig when graphics card price will go down again.... Currently everyone selling rx570/rx580 for more $600-$700... thats crazy!! I got lucky I found small local computer shop who is selling it for normal price and it was the last piece...

That's great! Here in my country graphics cards are so expensive and hard to find at present... there's a shortage I think, so maybe it's one of the reasons why the price soars high.
yup shortage everywhere

and on tomhardware a moderator said its not good to use this psu with 2 GPU's Is it true?

I think they're right. There will a shortage of power as other hardware there (CPU, Ram, HDD) also relying on your 550 PSU. I would recommend you to use a 750w PSU or if you're planning to add additional GPUs (2 or 4 GPUs) in the future 1000w or 1500w would be a better choice.
