Yes, it will run without any problems.

However the VS series are not recommended for gaming because of it's poor quality components.

I would recommend going to PSU Requirements for more information and check out this PSU Tier List so that you can purchase a Tier 1 or Tier 2 PSU

or should i go with MSI nvidia gtx 750 ti twin frozr oc 2gb ? :)
 
R7 370 is faster than 750ti and R7 370 supports CrossFire if you want to do dual gpu later


 


CrossFire or SLI is not recommended when it comes to entry to mid ranged GPU's the price : performance is terrible. You are much better off upgrading to something like a R9 290X or GTX 980, etc.

Also the MSI GTX 750 Ti is an excellent option especially since it dropped down in price a few weeks ago, however something like the R9 285 is an amazing price : performance GPU.
 




I am afraid that VS 550 will burned r7 370 thats because about 2 years ago i bought inno 3d nvidia gtx 650 1gb and its PSU req is 400w and i had a PSU which was 400w and within a week it got burned so its the second time i am buying the gpu i just want to know if Corsair is enough for these cards ? :) :)
