I will Be using it to do extreme gaming, Like Cod,HoN.Dota2,Dragon NEst and other Heavily Graphic Mmorpg. Is it still enough to carry these games?

I will be using GTX 550ti, And Based on the requirements, i think its good enough, But i wanted to know if my psu can handle the full load wattage while playing in mid-definition or high definition.

For a system using a single GeForce GTX 550 Ti graphics card NVIDIA specifies a minimum of a 400 Watt or greater power supply that has a combined +12 Volt continuous current rating of 24 Amps or greater and that has at least one 6-pin PCI Express supplementary power connector.

The Corsair Builder Series CX500 V2 (CMPSU-500CXV2), with its +12 Volt continuous current rating of 34 Amps and with two 6+2 pin PCI Express supplementary power connectors, is more than adequate to power your system with a single GeForce GTX 550 Ti.
