I just picked up an XFX Radeon R9 390 which was a little out of budget but seemed like a good option. Now that I've received it, I realized the power supply requirements are more than what I've currently got. I've read through some posts regarding PSUs and have seen some saying a lower one is fine if it's a good brand or you're not doing much, etc. I'm hoping to get an answer tailored to my build:

Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor
ASRock Z97 Anniversary ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Cooler Master Elite V2 550W ATX Power Supply
Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive + 2 smaller drives from a prebuilt PC.
Will I be alright with a 550w PSU with the new card plus my current build? I would be playing GTA V and Sims 3/4 primarily. Just wondering if trying to install would damage my new card or PC, or if I will be fine for a month or two until I can pick up a new PSU?
ETA: I'm not overclocking.
