Re: psu help
A 300w supply would be the bare minimum for that but you should do fine with a good quality 400-500w. There's no way the system would use more than 450w (65w CPU, 2x107w GPU, 50w MB, 10w RAM, 20w HDD, 20w others) - and that's maximum even including inefficiencies. Quality PSUs can burst to 10-20% higher than their rated output.
Unless it was a really crappy PSU or a fault somewhere, there's no chance you would have broken a 550w PSU by overloading it.
