my specs
i5 4460
Msi h81m-p33 motherboard
8gb memory
1tb WD purple hdd
Zotac gtx 960 2gbddr5

And i currently have a 500w psu this should be enough but i found out that its badly branded. So im upgrading to Aerocool KCAS 80 plus bronze 700w PSU
Is this psu good enough? IF its enough.. Will it still be enough for 2 or 4 cooling fans and 1ssd?

on a side note, western digital purple drives are designed for video surveillance. basically they have slow read speeds, but high write speeds. your build almost definitely runs slower, overall, than it should. you bought the totally wrong drive for your system. i'd recommend buying a wd blue drive and transferring your operating system to it. use the purple as a backup drive. blue are designed to hold operating systems and have quick read and write speeds.

Hi, 500W is MORE than enough fr your system, I run the below on a 500W PSU :

i5 4440 with CoolerMaster TX3 Evo
8GB RAM
Gigabyte H81M-DS2
1x 256GB SSD
1x 512GB SSD
1x 1TB HDD
1x 500GB HDD
Gigabyte R9 270x Winforce 3x - overclocked a bit
5x 120mm case fans

I have never had a power issue with my system.
