Hi! i am about to buy a new computer.
Im trying to use the power suply of my last computer in order to save some money (yes im a cheap bastard, but money is a consern for me right now).

I have a Vitsuba san-55-5 thats suposed to have real 550W it has about 6 years of use, and im sending it to be cleaned and tested.
(It concerns me that it might have lost some power beacause of the time past)
.
Question is, will 550W be enough for this components? and if it was a 550w but brand new?:

ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0
AMD FX 6300
SAPPHIRE DUAL-X R9 270 2GB GDDR5
G.SKILL Ripjaws X 8GB (2 x 4GB) 1600MHZ

Thank you so much!!
 


OCing requires more power, and the whole setup can heat up while providing those, so there're heatsinks to cool those (ie, thermals), and the board mentioned doesn't have good enough thermals and power for OCing.
