Hi

My specs are

Amd Fx 6300 (deepcool tiger shark)
16 gb (2pcs) 8gb ram Kingston Hyper x beast
Palit GTX 960 Jetstream 2gb
2 pcs of 1 TB Wd hard drive
MSI 970A-G43 MOBO
With 3 extra casing fan
Cougar 500W rated 80 PSU

Is my PC PSU enough?
Im just worried that It might be not enough for my power and can damage my PC components

I don't know how to compute the amount of wattage my CPU does.

I will not overclock anything can this damage my CPU components?
 
It will work for the time being. if that PSU fails it could either A: just never turn on again, or B: take out the whole system. there is not much on cougar PSUs out there, and therefore I am suspicious of its quality, as good PSUs rarely go unmentioned. That PSU is a potential point of failure, the sooner you can replace it the better. I would say go for 550 watts or more.
