Is corsair Cx450m enough for rx 570 8gb?

I wouldn't go any cheaper , build quality and reliability drops off quite a bit after models like the newer CX series. The 450w CX should still be ok as long as your not overclocking at all. The extra headroom of the CX550 models is ideal though.

Oh yes, there are most definitely cheaper psus than a CXM 550W, the question is really if you can afford to use those kinds of trash psus and end up replacing everything from the mobo to gpu when things go South. And they will.

Cx550m costs 65€ in my country cos of its popularity. But I can get a corsair Vengeance 650m silver for 70€ cos it has no reviews on our scrooge. Both brand new from local shops. Crazies
