i have a msi h81 p33 mobo, intel g3258 cpu, r9 280 gpu

im looking at getting a EVGA 500 B1 80+ BRONZE, 600W Continuous Power

will this be able to run my pc without problems? i will be overclocking cpu to around 4ghz btw

thanks for the help everyone, this is my first build and i think im getting a bit paranoid towards the end of it lol!

500W should be fine, let alone 600W. If you can, change the mobo to a higher quality one and get a slightly lower wattage PSU 520-550W would be just fine but make sure that it is a quality PSU here: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

I recommend a Asus B85M-Gamer or something of that nature
