Hello everyone! Hoping I could get a recommendation on which power supply would be better suited for my setup. Currently I have a Lenovo D20 (dual processor) and an R9 290X video card. The current power supply is this:

And i'm considering upgrading to the newer D30's power supply which is this:

I'm considering adding a 2nd R9 290X to run in crossfire. Which of these two would be better suited for a crossfire setup? I know the newer power supply has a higher rating and an extra 12V rail but as i've read here that does not always equal better real world performance. Thanks!
