The VS isn't a PSU for your type of system and won't handle that sort of load so you will be wasting your money and have to end up buying 2 PSU's instead...

No, CX450M is significantly better quality. VS series PSUs aren't made for high load scenarios and are basically only good in office stations. Not even to mention that the CX450 is roughly in the same price range. There's no reason to pick the VS450 over the CX450M.

Save up then. The last thing you want to do is cheap out on your power supply only to have it fail or even damage other components. PSUs built down for cost can also cause other problems in the system, especially if the voltages aren't consistent.

I suggest saving the extra $20 and getting what you need.
