First computer build, does this look like a good build?

A solid 550w is certainly NOT pushing it with a 7950, it'll even run on a Rosewill Capstone 450w (though that would be "pushing it").
My choice would be the platinum
KINGWIN Absolute Platinum Series AP-550 550W ATX 12V v2.2, EPS 12V v2.91 and SSI EPS 12V v2.92 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS PLATINUM Certified Active PFC Power Supply
For $80 after mail in rebate.
Remember that mailing in the rebate will void your warranty so make sure it works before you cut off the UPC.
Heck, maybe a lot of PSUs are made by the same OEM, but I am gonna say only go with XFX, Seasonic, and Corsair. The warranties are just better. Also, what if he wants to SLI in the future? PSUs dont have to be replaced often, so I would just go for whats best.
