My specs are :

Amd FX-8350 OC @ 4.0GHz

Asus M5A97 R2.0

8GB Kingston DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz

4GB Nvidia Geforce GTX 960


im also getting a PCS Frostflow 120 series liquid cooler (tell me if this cpu cooler will work with my cpu)

Will the Corsair VS 550 be enough? Or should i get the Corsair 650W CS Series Modular 80 plus Gold?

It stock CPU cooler isnt good enough to do OC but you could find a CPU cooler that is good by doing research on pcparpicker
You might need to go with a bigger watt PSU (this should do http://www.amazon.com/Xion-Performance-Watts-Supply-XON-850P14F/dp/B005HNF1EA/ref=sr_1_5?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1464444849&sr=1-5&keywords=power+supply&refinements=p_n_feature_keywords_two_browse-bin%3A6906988011%7C6906987011%7C6906986011%2Cp_n_condition-type%3A2224371011%2Cp_6%3AATVPDKIKX0DER)
 


Will the stock cooler be good enough for Overclocking. and should i just get a 750W psu
Or would a PCS Frostflow 120 series liquid cooler fit my cpu?
