PSU powerful enough?

Will XFX TS 550 PSU be enough powerful to power this build?

 

CPU: Intel Core i5 4690K
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 970 G1
MB: MSI Z97 PC Mate
RAM: CORSAIR VENGANCE LP 8GB
CPU COOLER: LEPA V12 Black
 
I was also thinking of adding a watercooling unit later in future.

Yes i would be but just go with 650 or 750 if you want headroom and room for expandability;)

i suggest the 750G2 by EVGA

but XfX is still a great budget PSU but go with a little more ;)

plenty even with overclocking.your rig uses around 250w in load.

It will but if you ever wanna SLI it's not too much to just buy a 750W as a just in case, although if you never want to than 550 is fine. Use this :) http://coolermaster.outervision.com/

Yes, you'll be perfectly fine. Even heavily overclocked, you will be VERY hard pressed to see even 350W of total system power draw from the PSU. In reality you even have enough power for SLI.
