Is the Seasonic G-550 550W 80Plus Gold enough to power the ff:

Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 (rev. 3.0)
Corsair Air Series AF120 x3
Corsair Air Series SP120 x2
AMD Vishera FX-6300 3.5GHz (OC'd to 4.0)
Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB x1
Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB x1
Crucial Ballistix Tactical Tracer 8gb 1600 kit (No OC)

Sapphire R9-270X Vapor-X or Sapphire R9-280X Vapor-X, No OC

Thanks! I was actually choosing between the Seasonic G-550 550W 80Plus Gold and FSP AU-650M AURUM CM 650W 80Plus Gold Modular as their prices are just 200php apart ($4 difference if converted at 50php = $1). Both are modular and Gold certified. The Seasonic M12II-620 620W 80PLUS Bronze Modular is $4 cheaper than both.

Any feed back on the FSP? I got my hands on a Sapphire R9-270X Toxic and have no plans to really OC it much, only the CPU to at least 4.0ghz. Cooler is a Noctua NH-U12P SE2.

Finally got my Sapphire R9-280X Dual-X. I currently have an 3 year old Corsair TX750w. Though this isn't modular, this wouldn't pose a problem as long as it's working right? Or would it be recommended to get a new PSU for a new rig? I was actually thinking of getting the G550w to use in my current matx setup which I'm replacing.

Current setup is a Phenom II X6 minor OC, MSI HD6870 (no OC), Corsair Vengeance 8gb kit, Corsair H50, a 320gb and 500gb HDD and 6 fans. The case is a Fractal Arc Mini so slightly tight behind the motherboard tray for cables.
