Get the Radeon 6850 for a couple more. It is much better than the 550ti. Get a better PSU, For one 6850, a 500W PSU by XFX or Seasonic is more than enough.

You don't need 16GB of RAM. 8GB is more than enough for playing all games on Ultra Graphics. 8GB is $40, so save yourself $55 and go for a Radeon 6870.

8GB of Memory: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220557 ($40)
Radeon 6870: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150561 ($150 After Rebate)

Here is two better PSU's, they use less power but it will be fine, they are the best value PSU's around.

Follow what I have put up here and you will have a much better gaming system that will still be able to run lots of games on high settings.

Yes... 16gb of RAM is for NASA. you need 8gb max. And don't skimp on that PSU. if it goes, it can fry your whole system. a Corsair TX 650. its a good psu and enough power for your system.
