It should be fine, but you won't be able to overclock the video card much at 550w, Also you should swap out the case for something like the 200r or 300r from corsair, that case has horrible cable management, and also the case is flimsy.

 

[Chubsmagee]

The 200r was my original choice, but sadly the place I put my case in can only support a max of 7.75" in width. The 200r is 8.3", so it wouldn't fit.

That is a bit of an odd size, is it just like a shelf on your desk for the computer or something?

 

[Chubsmagee]

Basically my desk is shoved into a cove-like area where there is only a small space beside my desk to put the computer (My desk doesn't have a PC holder on it). So, I'm forced into an awkward position where I really have to consider the width of my computer case or else it will be sitting out in the open, leaving me with less space than I already have. It sucks.

Would you be willing to do something like a small form factor build?

 

[Chubsmagee]

This is my first time building a PC, so I want to try to "normalize" this build as much as possible. From the reviews, it looks like the Challenger wont really give me any huge issues, so I'd rather stick with it than try to change everything over to a small form factor build.

Yeah if you like the way it looks and that then you should be just fine with everything else, I would recommend buying a decent 140mm fan for the top and a 140mm fan for the back, The stock ones are really loud.
