If you are at all worried then I'd just sell the 500W PSU and get a 600-650W one and you'll never have to worry. I had a 520W but felt I was cutting it too close for a 280x and had to upgrade to a 650W PSU to be 100% sure and safe.
Ok i might just do that, bit off topic i guess but if i was to get a CX750M (The daddy of the CX500M), could i simply remove the CX500M and install the CX750M, whilst leaving the wiring to the Board/HDD/GPU (and any other things i forgot) in place as both are modular from the same manufacturer? Probably a noob question, but what other types of questions can noobs ask?
(Also, can i do the same with the CX600M?)
