500 is good only for an office PC.
This thing will barely run Windows.
That PSU will explode. Or catch fire. Or take all of that investment with it. Take your pick, one of them WILL happen. Coolmax is a very bad brand.
Video card?
Granted, I went 30 bucks over. But the one you posted would die in a few days. This one can actually play games. Games like Battlefield 2, abet with low-medium settings. The other one wouldn't even start it up.
