Yup enough.
But why dont you spend some more and go for Seasonic S12II-620. Its much better option.

Better get the gs600. Even the seasonic s12ii 520w is enough.

CORSAIR GS600 would be the best option.

The seasonic one has a very high efficiency thats all,and its built like a tank.
But corsair gs600 will do just fine.more than fine actually.

Actually its 80+ Bronze. Others are only 80+ certified. 5% of difference of efficiency.

This. Out of the two PSU, Seasonic is the Best VFM.
