Hey Im building a new system and it looks like I am going to go with an AMD 4000+ with 2 gigs OCZ Ram and a 7800 BFG Manufactured with a Raptor Drive and one optical drive. I have settled on 550watts From Rosewill, is that enough power and a good name brand?

Watts dont tell me that much about the PSU. I would need to know the amps on it to know if it decent. Personally for such a highend system I would get a PSU from a more well respected name then Rosewill.

Information on what to look for and a bunch of recomendations in all price ranges here

OCZ PSUs are the fan favourite pretty much everywhere you go now, but even though they are fanboy magnets they are good PSUs.
 
33A on the 12v rail is very impressive, no prblems with stability here. More than capable of running everything.
 
Good Reviews on it as well. What do you guys think?

Having loads of amps on the 12V rail doesnt mean the PSU is gonna be voltage stable (which this one just happens to be though)
