Hi there, my build will be
Nvidia ScanFX 770
WD 1TB Hard drive
4gb ram
asus m5a97 R2.0
AMD FX 6300

i was thinking of getting a Corsair CX500w psu
Thanks
 
Solution
Consider an XFX 550 Pro. While the CX500 is not bad, its not great either.

The XFX will not be much more but is of much higher quality.
The Corsair "CX" line was built by CWT using some inferior capacitors that don't like heat. If at all possible, I'd choose something a little better, like a 500W Antec Earthwatts, or something built by Seasonic. The 550W Rosewill Capstone is $75, or $85 for the modular version.
Edit: XFX PSUs are made by Seasonic, so that's a good choice.
