yes the XF550 should be plenty for that build.

Captin · Aug 31, 2014

And what about the case u think that will hold it all?

Captin · Aug 31, 2014

I'll also be putting Windows 8 on it

tiny voices · Aug 31, 2014

Yes but the case is not good. It uses a 10 year old PSU on top design so your cable management will be terrible and look bad.

Raidmax is also a pretty bad company in general. I would DEFINITELY change the case.

This was a high end case a decade ago.

And do you think it will handle OC?

Captin · Aug 31, 2014

What case would u recomend around the same price?

tiny voices · Aug 31, 2014

Look at Corsair, NZXT, Bitfenix, Fractal Design, Thermaltake for much better quality cases.

tiny voices · Aug 31, 2014

Aesthetically it is not my favorite, but structurally, it is a very good case and will be great.

I like this one the most if it has good airflow and will hold everything it's mine lol

tiny voices · Aug 31, 2014

Yes it is a very good and SUPER popular case. It will work great.

SWEET u mean the Phantom right? And also how would I hook up led lights? Will there be a spot on my motherboard?

tiny voices · Aug 31, 2014

The LEDs are just built into the fans. I have done many builds with that case.

Captin · Aug 31, 2014

Oh ik the fans r but I'm getting led srips well tubes and wondering how to hook em up

tiny voices · Aug 31, 2014

They will probably connect directly to the PSU. I do not personally like LEDs so I have little experience with them. If you have cathode tubes, they will have a decent sized plastic box connected that will need to be mounted in the case and connected to the PSU for power.
