Will 550w be enough?

I have been trying to decide if a 550w is enough for this build. I would like to overclock my CPU and GPU a little bit, but I'm not sure if 550w then would be enough.

 

Thanks!

Yes

Yes 550W is plenty, but don't get that Corsair power supply.

Why don't you think i should go with the Corsair? I'm figuring that I would like a PSU that could last me a long time.

The Corsair RM is not a good PSU for the price. It's overpriced and overhyped for a power supply with only mid-range-quality internals. Check out this article:

In terms of a higher quality PSU (and therefore one that will last longer and be more reliable), this PSU will mop the floor with the Corsair RM and it's even cheaper. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seasonic-power-supply-ssr550rm

I am not sure I will be able to get that PSU in Denmark where i live. I didnt seem to find any websites except ebay. 

But how would a Cooler Master V550S be?

Cooler Master V550 and that power Seasonic are the same, except the Cooler Master is fully-modular. If it's a similar price then I would definitely get it as the V-Series are very solid units.

I believe the v550s is only semi-modular?

Whoops my bad, it is semi-modular. In that case it is identical to the Seasonic G550.

The Cooler Master V550 is an Enhance Electronic build unit - not a Seasonic build unit like the fully modular unit.

It's a solid unit nonetheless.

Shall be fine.
