Sapphire r9 280x 3gb 
Here is the problem 
Fx-8350=http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2012/11/06/amd-fx-8350-review/7
r9 280x=http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2013/10/08/amd-280x-270x-260x-reviews/9

Because it consumes around 563 watts but not sure if i should buy the Corsair cx600w 80+ bronze

Hmm 600w seems to be a skim of the edge, 650w is better and will last an upgrade or two

600W would be more than enough, but I wouldn't go with a CX600. Not really a good PSU. XFX Core Edition Pro 650W, Cooler Master V650, or Rosewill Capstone-650-M. These are the best PSU's for the money.

Neither is pushing it. You'd be hard pressed to draw more than 500w outside of synthetic benchmarks. 

Because it consumes around 563 watts but not sure if i should buy the Corsair cx600w 80+ bronze

Where'd you get 563w?
