I have a 550W XFX Core pro gaming PSU and im looking to get a r9 280 to upgrade my gtx 660, and I was wondering if I have enough power. I will not be overclocking.

Other specs.
i5 4690k
Ripjaw g Skill 2,133 8gb.
Arctic freezer pro 13 CPU cooler.

SOme links to get info on the PSU:

You have more than enough power there :)  Even if your PSU was 10 years old you'd still have enough power lol :p

Your PSU is enough to support your system, a 500W PSU can run 280 without any problem so is your 550W.
