Is this https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Modular-Crossfire-Warranty-210-GQ-0650-V1/dp/B017HA3SQ8/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1466636883&sr=1-1&keywords=EVGA+GQ a good power supply to run a R9 380 and 16GB ram with a 95W CPU?

Yes it's a decent PSU made by FSP.

NICE REVIEW HERE.

Summary

The EVGA GQ series thus far looks to be really strong, so far some of the best performing stuff that's come out of the FSP factory. I like these units, even though I still can't see why EVGA needs to have so many units from so many different manufacturers all competing with one another. True, these don't quite match the performance of the G2 and GS lines, but they really do come close enough for most people.

The Good:

excellent voltage stability
awesome low load efficiency
very good ripple control
excellent build quality

The Bad:

can't think of nothing... wait, that doesn't work. Can't think of not nothing. There we go.

The Mediocre:

ripple control could be a touch better still

Is the High load good though can it handle like 500-550 Watts for around 5-8 years??

8 years is a long time , 5 years is more likely since it has that for the warranty.

It's a good PSU.
