Is a 500 watt PSU enough for the pheom II 550 X2 and a 9600 OCX video card?

it should be enough and its a decent brand, at least you didn't post an apevia PSU

+1 to mindless...That PSU is just enough but if you plan to change your graphics card to a more powerful one(Your PSU can handle say max 4850/ GTS250 but would be definitely pushing it...), then change your PSU...

Get this PSU...
Corsair 400W - Far better than that PSU and you get USD $20 Mail-In-Rebate...

What Gkay09 said is true.But also consider this one.

CORSAIR CMPSU-450VX 450W ATX12V V2.2 80 PLUS

Slight price difference for 50W more.
I think you should go with this.
