Hello.
I want to ask if I buy a GAMMAX Deepcool 200 cpu fan can it support the overclock of a FX8320 to 4ghz atleast.
I also consider buying a 500W Deepcool DN500 Black 80Plus PSU.
I currently own a Sapphire 7950 OC version GPU, and 4x2 GB 1600MHz Ram.
So it's kinda 2 questions in the same post, which are, can a 500W PSU support the components I am planning on buying?
Thank you.

Let me answer your second question first. Assuming that is your whole system and that you don't plan on upgrading to multiple graphics cards or anything else later, yes a 500W power supply is more then enough for your needs. For testing minimum wattages you can use a site such as http://www.extreme.outervision.com/PSUEngine to calculate both the minimum and recommended wattages.

As for the overclock you should have no problem getting to at least 4ghz with the FX8320 on that cooler. You can see http://hwbot.org/hardware/processor/fx_8320/ for the average achieved overclocks, although remember it will be highly dependent on your individual hardware and how well you do in the silicon lottery.
