what about the cooler master cx430m power supply?

It would work just fine, but if you're planning on overclocking, you should consider a higher wattage, better quality power supply.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

Corsair has a CX430, Cooler Master does not.

 

Don't buy a CX430. The price is not worth it. While everyone goes way overboard on the hate train for CX series units, a CX430 is just a bad idea.

 

Give us a location and price, or a preferred retailer and we can get you a good recommendation.

I recommend a 500w PSU minimum for a Gaming PC like yours. PSU's shouldnt run under full load.
