The Video Card says that it needs a minimum of 450W. Will the 550W be enough for the entire build?

520W would be enough. 550W is plenty

[immanguyener]

Are you sure??
I mean I'm just making sure, but it says, "A minimum 450W system power supply(with 12V current rating of 40A)."
For recommended system requirements.

Haha alright. The number sounds legitimate. Thanks a lot!

One thing, somebody on the forums had their OCZ PSU blow out. After reading countless reviews I still think the PSU is sufficient, but it is just a headsup.

You could just get a Seasonic 520W to be safe

Power Supply: OCZ 550W Power Supply

OCZ does not make the best of power supplies.

This is the power supply I have:

If that is too pricy, I know many people recommend Corsair builder and enthusiast series power supplies.

[mojo6912]

not the builder series, the enthusiast or professional series.

Your build will pull like, 255-300w, the latter under rather pushing overclocks. But I doubt you would reach that far.

So yes, 550w is more than fine.
