Do I need a new PSU?

EnmxLP

Hi my build is going to be:

i7 6700k
16gb ddr4 ram
gigabyte windforce gtx980 (one with 3 fans)
500gb seagate barracuda
samsung 830 512gb ssd
crucial m4 256gb ssd
LG read and write disc drive

and my current powersupply is a Superflower amazon 550w 80+ bronze, will it be enough wattage to power the build? Thanks!

Yes, it's more than enough.

"System wattage with GPU in full stress = 301 watts"
So that's for the whole system.


Unless you've a hat of HDDs they're irrelevant for the most part.
