The Link doesn't work, but as long as you have a reliabale, efficient source of 600+ watts, you should be fine. I would recommend a 650-700 though, just to give you some overhead.

Well this one is Bronze certified , right?

This is the description:

(This ATX / PS2 power supply unit (PSU) has a real power rating of 600W (continuous). The eco-friendly design allows BPN 85+ series to reach up to 86% efficiency. BPN series also protects your PC by providing complete protection (OCP, OVP and SCP). BPN series also has black coating, making it the best choice for gamers and system builders using black chassis.
The efficiency of this power supply meets the 80 PLUS® Bronze requirements at 230V input. However, as EPRI only test power supplies at 115V input; this PSU cannot be certified by 80 PLUS® (as implemented by ECOVA). This also meets the Energy Star Version 5.0 Power Supply and Power Management Requirements for Computers: Effective July 1st, 2009.)

Is it good enough? I know that the 780 needs about 250 Watt.

I wish I had data tables that documented the reliability of PSUs. I tried finding any sort of review of the power supply you linked, but couldn't. I have nothing to prove that it will be good or bad, I've only heard a bit about the brand. Like you pointed out, it is efficient enough. I just don't know if those ratings guarantee reliability. Bottom line, I don't think the risk is substantial enough to avoid the FSP PSU. You should be fine.

That said, I would recommend getting a 650W PSU. That would just give you some overhead for either future upgrades or overclocking. You shouldn't run into any trouble with the 600W, but just be careful with it if you make more upgrades in the future.

One more question. I decided to use this PSU with the overclocked Msi 780. There is no problem if i put an ssd in my pc,right? Beside that i dont want to overklock or upgrade something else , only this GPU and a SSD are new. Is that a problem?

You shouldn't run into any problems, SSDs are low voltage components: less than traditional hard-drives. I highly doubt that adding one will push you over the 600 watt capacity.
