You should be looking at a 650W unit for the sake of longevity. Are those the only units you have access to? Speaking of access, where are you located, what is your budget and what is your preferred site for purchase?

or should i buy a used corsair cx 750w psu? will it be worth it to buy a used psu?

 

[Ravz]

Do you actually have all the parts with you or need to buy them? And besides never buy a used PSU!!!!

Could you please post your preferred site of purchase of your region? Will be helpful to decide the right PSU.

[refillable]

U9 500W will do just fine unless you are planning to use GPUs that consumes north of 225W. S12II 520W would be my second option, but it's a bit expensive here.

 

[NightHawkRMX]

The only model suggested that i could possibly recommend would be the SeaSonic M12ii 520.

I wouldn't buy a used PSU if this SeaSonic is new and you can afford it.

Of these three I too recommend you to go with U9 500W like @refillable said.
And about the GPU, do you have to buy one or you already have those two cards with you?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

U500 is kind of a bad choice.

System powers are not a good option due to their low quality

 

[j121]

be quiet system Power is bad quality ? not sure i can agree with that

what about corsari cv450?

 

[fathirmuhammad37]

is corsair cv450 good?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

"Good" Is a very vague statement.

Good for what system specs? For what use?

The Corsair CV is basically the existing Corsair VS PSU, just updated to meet 80+ Bronze efficiency requirements.

Its OK for an entry-level system, but due to its budget dated design, It's not what I would pick for a high-end system

 

[NightHawkRMX]

A CV450 would be fine for the system with a 960. With the higher power draw RX570 it will also work although not ideal.

I would still prefer the M12ii 520w.

ok then i think i would get the cv450, but what if the cv450 compares to the be quiet u9? which one should i get?
oh yeah if i want to get the seasonic, i think i could only afford the s12ii evo 450w, is it good?

well my pc is
i5 4690
8gb ram ddr3
gtx 960

is the psu good enough to handle that system?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

Yes

 

[NightHawkRMX]

S12ii evo 450w doesn't exist. If you are talking about an s12iii 450w, dont buy it.

Corsair cv would be my pick over the u9 or s12iii 450w.

There are two FATAL mistakes in your build:

1. The entirety of your "new" build is extremely outdated, 5-year old build.
2. Do you seriously put a $40 budget on a PSU???

 

[IDProG]

I suggest that you save more money first. Skimping out on PSU that extreme is just terrible decision making.
