PSU for Overclocking Sapphire 7950 OC

[lVlattW]

What PSU wattage would I need for this system:

Final Build:

CPU: FX8350
MoBo: Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0
RAM: Patriot Viper 3 2x4GB 1600Mhz
GPU: Sapphire 7950 Dual-X OC
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 1TB 64MB Cache
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
Cooler: Hyper 212 EVO

and to get an overclock out my GPU (and maybe my cpu, but gpu first)

Would 500 do?

Thanks

For that rig 500w would'nt be enough.
Try getting a Corsair VS650 if u are tight on budget or Corsair TX650.

CX600M is very good PSU.

CX600M =CX Series are budget units and not meant for overclocking.

CX and VS both are Budget units and oc'ing can be done on both of them.
I am having a VS650 Can oc'ed my Gpu and Cpu working fine.

It was between that and OCZ 600w, so picked Corsair based on reliability. I thought GPU's didn't use that much more energy when OC'd?

CX Series™ power supply units are an excellent choice for basic system builds and desktop PC computer upgrade

VS Series PSUs: the entry-level 240V power supplies with high-end features.The Corsair VS Series are a great choice if you’re building a home or office system with lower power demands, but you still demand the compatibility and reliability that Corsair is known for.
