Ok, I originally bought a msi 7950 twin, which was not not compatible with my gpu water block. Thus, I bought a msi r7970, which has a reference 7970 pcb. My question is will a 550W psu be enough for a oc 7970 and 3570k ?
My exact psu is a KINGWIN Lazer Platinum Series LZP-550 550W.

I'm fairly confidant my psu can handle a non oc set up, but if I plan to oc a lot on both my cpu and gpu will it be enough?
My psu supposedly can oc to 650W, but will drop to gold efficiency.
My comp specs are as follows:
Asrock extreme4
intel 3570k
msi r7970
256GB 830 Samsung
8 gb of ram
2 corsair 140mm fans
3 gentle typhoons ap-15
1 swiftech mcp655
1 Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional
1 Deck keyboard plus razer mouse
1 dvd drive
I also plan to add a fan controller later.
