Blew your wad on the GPU and didn't have enough money for a better PSU? 

 

550W is fine if it's a better 550W.  If you insist on a modular PSU, get the TX550M, RM550x or the RM650 instead.

 

If modular cables isn't important, get the CX550 (no M at the end).  The non-M is actually newer than the "M" version.

 

EDIT:  Keep in mind that that board has an 8-pin and 4-pin for CPU power.  Odds are that the 8-pin will be more than adequate, but if you want/need to populate both, you need to make sure your power supply has both cables (and currently, yours does not).

Because you're not asking a question.

 

What is your question?

 

[Nikola1408]

Sorry if didnt explaindd to well, someone reccomended to me a 650w psu but looking some more ive seen that others says a 550w is plenty enough, mine is corsair cx550m full modular, than someone else told to me about the 8 pin and 4 pin on the motherboard that its not compatible and nnow i need some help with the mobo too, so 1st question is the psu ok or need to buy an other one and 2nd question could you suggest to me a mobo thats compatible price range 200/230 euro thank you

550W IS enough.  One guy suggested 650W and the rest of us can't figure out why they said that. 

 

The motherboard you linked in your last parts list only has a single 8-pin for CPU power. 

 

So you look good right now.
