500w is pushing it and that PSU is not great to begin with. Get the PC P&C 610w: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 5&Tpk=610w It is the best PSU for that price range and that watt range. That comes from an "expert" lol.

Corsair or Antec would be good to look at also the Corsair520 or Antec anything over 550w should be great... blood ravens suggestion would also fit the bill
