Corsair cx500 enough power?

[calvinxd]

Hi, is the Corsair CX500 power supply enough to power the following system. Will there be enough room to over clock the CPU a graphics card a bit?

AMD FX-8320
8gb Kingston Beast Ram
500GB HDD
XFX Radeon HD 7850
3 120mm case fan

Thanks

It's decent, though, there're better ones out there for about the same price, as for the question, it will do, that gpu has a low power consumption : http://tpucdn.com/reviews/AMD/HD_7850_HD_7870/images/power_peak.gif
Even thought that cpu is somewhat power hungry, it will do just fine.
