Hey! I'm going to Order A ASUS GTX660 DCII OC And doubtful If A VS550 or CX500 would Work!
I'm buying other parts Also
The system config is:-
I3 3220
ASUS H61m-k mobo
(8*1)GB corsair vengeance 1600mhz
WD Caviar Blue 500gb
Please Tell me the the least i should get As i'm not going to spend much on a SMPS
PS- I might OC it After 1 or 2 years

A pc with a gtx600 needs at least 430W

Get a good power supply from tier 1, 2a or 2b of http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1804779/power-su...

The VS power supplies are not certified so I wouldn't recommend them.

We've had a lot of problems reported with CX power supplies. So I wouldn't recommend them.

However I would recommend Seasonioc 520, XFX 550 or Antecc HCG 520M

All of the PSUs listed will be fine. Personally I would advice a better alternative like the XFX 550W. Or is that one too expensive?

Stick with the CX line.

Edit: buy the Seasonic instead. It will work fine for a GTX 660.

No. With your system, you are looking at maybe 300W (no overclock). So 520W is more than sufficient for any overclocking.
