What happens to quality factor of capacitor when they are in parallel or series? For example if one 270pF has minimum Q of 1000 and two capacitors in parallel with total value of 270pF, (each capacitor has minimum Q of 1000). What will be total Q in a second case when two capacitors are paralleled?
If caps have the same quality, nothing changes, either in parr, or in series. The assembly will have a q of 1000.
Where on earth have you found the supposed 'Q' of capacitors stated ?

It's important in RF, especially power RF. It's worth paying a little more for caps that don't unsolder themselves from the board.
Google high-q capacitor

-- Politicians should only get paid if the budget is balanced, and there is enough left over to pay them.
It's there specially for NPO caps.
