BTW, the 500w PSU is 80 plus. Oh and I'm kinda new to this computer building stuff, so I might of worded the question a bit weird.

From what manufacturer? Just make sure it's not a generic brand. If it's from a reputable brand then your all set.

I've looked up a bunch of stuff on that but most people said it would BARELY bottleneck it. Like almost no difference at all

Thats the link to the exact one I have

Well, first of all, that is not a 500 watt psu. That's a 750 what psu.
Secondly, that is more than enough to power a 660, in fact, it's quite overkill. Then again, the more head room the better. Plus, it will come in handy when you upgrade in the future.

Yes, that psu will be sufficient enough to power your rig.
