Don't get this PSU :D  it actually suck (at least that what i heard ) you are better off with a corsair,Antec or Seasonic 620-650W PSU it's better to have a larger PSU than what you actually need

Just thought i would add that the Antec PSU is much better than that specific cooler master but it won't provide much future proof or room for upgrades down the track, say if you wanted to add another GPU you would also need a PSU upgrade. I would personally spend a bit more money to get a more juicy unit.

Why dont you look at CoolerMaster Gx 550W PSU which is also a 80P proven one and has positive reviews. I too have plans for buying 560Gtx ti bundled with 550W Gx series PSU. This is better and yet affordable.

Buy the Antec Green 500W unit ! The lower end CM units are crappy with one exception the GX450 which isn't enough juice and PCI-E connectors.
The only other good unit is the THERMALTAKE TR2 700W-NON MODULAR (TR-700PCEU)= expensive.

:o  What's wrong with GX 550W, which should be sufficient for GTX560Ti if not SLI I believe. This is decent but affordable PSU from CM.

The GX 450 is the only GX series unit i saw that didnt fail a review. There havent been any reviews of the ones built by Enhance but the fact that both the GX 650 and the GX 750 failed reviews for high 3.3V noise, and i believe the GX 550 is based on the same platform leads me to blacklist that unit too. Anyway, i dont trust anything from the GX series after those reviews.

the antec has 2 pci pins ? i dont know that

Experienced forum members such as hunter315 and myself wouldn't recommend an unsuitable unit.
The EA-500D Green(80 PLUS® Bronze certified) includes 1 x 8(6+2)-pin and 1 x 6-pin PCI-E connectors.

Thermaltake TR2 units are also bad choices with the exception of the TR-700PCEU which is out of your price ramge.
