Maybe, but not for long. The corsair "CX" line was built by CWT, using some inferior Samxon capacitors that don't like heat and are known for early failure. So while initially it might, it would run hot, and that capacitor would quickly degrade, turning the "maybe" into a "no."

A 500 watter works for a 760

No to the 500W Corsair CX; it's built with the same substandard capacitor(s). The modular versions of the CX use all-Japanese capacitors, but I'm not sure there's one that small.
The XFX that Sakkura cited would be a better choice. Those are built by Seasonic.
