enough wats?

Which 500 watt PSU? If it's a good one, then it'll be close, but itll probably work. However, if it's a cheapo unit, don't even think about it.
 
A lot of times you can find either the Corsair 750 watt or the PC & P 750 watt PS's on sale at newegg with rebate around $100 and they are both top quality and would be plenty good for what you need.After about 800 watts or so the price tends to jump up quite a bit then for top Ps's
 
it may seem like a waste of extra cash but the PSU may only cost 2.5% of the system cost but causes 28% of system failures
 
It is up to you, but I have always heard that when your wanting to run Sli or Crossfire skimping on a PSU is the last thing you want to do .
 
ive seen that case really cheap on newegg you can just buy it cheaper save like 40 bucks and put that towards a better PS. Plus its always annoying when you go to upgrade a year down the road and your saying to yourself "MAN i shoulda just got the better one"

*edit... Also The one you listed has a 2 year warranty The Pc & p Has a 5 year warranty.There is a reason for this.The Corsair I believe also has a good warranty even though it doesnt list it on the spec tab.The shipping is free on both these models which kinda takes away some of sting from them costing $30 more .I , myself wont buy cheap Ps anymore.I used to and would get a year or 2 out of the BB and CC brands

Ehh, I would stick with a Corsair, even if it's lower powered. Notice how that's rated for 750 watts at 40C. Trust me, your computer is going to be hotter than 40C.
