Is this power supply sufficient?

[ingoi]

So I'm planning to replace my old computer with one I'm going to use for many years.

 

This is a Link to my build -  http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/pDqNHx

 

Would you recommend a Corsair cx500W or should I go for the Corsair cx600w? I believe it would be enough to power my system to boot but is there anything I should be considering? Such as a depreciation on the power supply if used for many years. I don't plan to overclock or SLI/crossfire my computer.

Why on Earth would you get a 4690k and a bloody H81 board?!

For $80 you can get an EVGA Supernova GS. Corsair CX series PSU's are not good imo. Also, you will need a Z97 board to overclock.

I would only understand a H81 board for the G3258... go for a z97 and yes your PSU is efficient enough.

Cheapness level has gone off the roof.

OP doesn't want to overclock.

I swear some people need to put in those five seconds of thought to understand what they're doing.

i wouldnt recommend Corsair's CX series. i would suggest getting seasonic s12II almost the same price but it performs much better

Order everything from memory expresses, they will price match any competitor and save you 10% on most of the things that are cheaper elsewhere.

EVGA GS series is also around the same cost and is so much better then the CX series.

Can you tell me the reason why a H81 board is considered a bad idea for a 4690k?

 

Edit

- Oh crap its because 4690k is more for overclocking isn't it, whoops my bad, guess I'll get a 4460 instead.

 

Thank you guys for pointing out my mistake.

$80 for a CX500 is ridiculouses
