A good 500W would be OK. But not the Corsair. Try a Seasonic 520, XFX 550 or Antec HCG 520M instead

With that psu you wouldn't want to oc at all. The cx series uses cheap caps and has a short lifespan. Spend a little more and get a better unit like the 550w xfx. Also get the cooler master 212. The cooler you have now isn't much better than the stock one.
