The title says CX750 80 plus gold, but there is no CX gold rated unit from Corsair. Either way, if it is 750W from Corsair it does have enough power connectors for your RX 480.
Are you referring to the Bronze rated CX750? If you are I recommend the new (2017) grey-label instead of the older green-label.

Do not, absolutely do not buy a green label model. I'm warning you now, that PSU is incredibly low quality and you should not be using that PSU for anything but office-grade PCs and VERY low use scenarios.
Gray label CXMs are significantly better quality.
EDIT: A GTX 480 is far more than enough to push it to a limit you want a green label CX to hit. If it were me, I would spend the extra $20-40 and get a PSU that doesn't have the same level of potential to damage my components.

EVGA Supernova should be fine. Link the model that you're looking at. The last component you want to cheap out on is the PSU.

The old & new cx750s are virtually the same PSU, the 750 never had anything in common with the rest of the range as it's always been a dc-dc regulated unit.
That said you should go for the new silver labelled cx650/650m over either of the 750s.
More than enough power & absolutely better quality
The supernova g1's should be avoided if possible.

That's a bid price , its likely to go much higher.
There's a 650w model here which is $75 BIN with a best offer option.

A psu is the one PC component I would never consider buying second hand unless it was from a friend & I knew it's complete usage history
