I'm replacing an older PSU that's finally dying.
Based on these system specs:
ASROCK Z77 extreme4
intel i5 3570k with cooler master hyper 212+ (overclocked)
corsair vengeance 8gb (2x4gb) ddr3
radeon hd6850
1 SSD, 1 SATA HDD, 1 DVD drive
Antec 900 case
Based on this, the calculators recommend a ~508W PSU. Assuming I upgrade my video card in roughly 3 years, will a 550W PSU cover a video card upgrade, or do I need to go bigger? I don't plan on going the dual video card route.
