Hello! i am new to the entire "building computers and upgrading your parts" kind of thing (very general I know but i have never been to big into this kind of thing) and recently my pc would just stop randomly while doing even medium graphics on certain games (mainly The Crew, tf2, gmod, and many more, but even small, easier to run games like minecraft, octodad, and css.). I have installed the Gtx 1060 6g sc into my computer and thats when the problem started, i thought it may be my new gpu but i wasn't sure so i went around researching and narrowed it down to my psu... basically when im asking is, what is a good quality psu i can buy around $50 that can fix my problem? i am looking for around 500W and while modular would be better i don't believe it is necessary... i have found a few things so far, like https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BUM178Q/ref=twister_B00LZI1OAG?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DZ6R9GE/ref=twister_B01G69E69E?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
and https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-CX500-Supply-Bronze-Certified/dp/B0092ML0MY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1482786881&sr=8-3&keywords=500w+power+supply but i dont know if these would be able to do what i need... i dont know most of what my parts are because i bought this pc about a year ago from bestbuy when i didnt even know you COULD build your own computer... but i do know this:
Gpu: Gtx 1060 6g sc
psu (current is crappy): Turbolink ATX-XG500W
cpu: AMD FX-6300 @ 3.50 GHz 1 processor, 3 cores, 6 threads (i think)
motherboard: MSI 760GM-P23(FX) (MS-7641) (I think)
ram: 2x4 ddr3 (2 sticks of 4)
(used geekbench for the cpu and motherboard so i dont know 100% if that is the real specs)
