Is 550W enough?

[Rawhide15]

So I am working on a build.. i5 3570K and a Radeon HD 7970 3GB Video Card...

Would the SeaSonic 550W PSU be enough?

Yes, for a 7970 it's required a 500w minimum, with ~36 amps, that seasonic is 550w and has single rail +12v @46A, that psu is of good quality, nothing to be worried about.
