I'm building a computer and i want to ask will 600w psu be ok for this build:
Mobo - Asus, 970, DualDDR3-1866, SATA3, RAID, GBLAN, ATX
Cpu - AMD FX-8350, X8, socket AM3+
Cpu cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo
Gpu - MSI r9 270
Also would love to hear suggestions from you if you have any. I need everything nice and cheap.

You only need about 450w. It is not wrong to buy 620w.
A stronger 600w psu will run cooler, and more efficiently.
You would be able to upgrade to a card as strong as a R9-290X or a GTX780ti.

But... never buy a cheap psu. it is false economy.
A cheap psu that fails can destroy all it is attached to.
Buy a tier 1 0r 2 unit from this list:
