I wouldn't get a CX600 with a 4670k and a GTX 780. I would look into a HX 750 or HX 850 or atleast the TX 650.

Yes i was thinking of going for the tx650 but i am trying to cut down on a bit of cost and it dose not seem that i will need the extra 50w of power

For this system you're going to need around 450w, although it is only 50 watts less, it does give you more room, the tx650 also has better amperage and a few other features, but is overall just better quality with a much better failure rate. I personally would go for a 750 just because you would be able to run SLI 780's later with a bit more power to spare.

Another thing to keep in mine is that even though it says 600w, you won't be able to use all of it. One more thing is that the lower the load on the power supply the longer it will probably last.
