Any high quality 450 watts or better is enough for your system.

Do you think i should get a 500w just incase?

Higher wattage is pretty much never a bad idea, it only means you're future proofing for a potential upgrade in the future plus your power supply will work at reduced loads. As long as you get the right model, meaning good build quality and good performance.

Power Supply: SeaSonic G 550W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($64.99 @ Newegg)
Total: $64.99
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

I was looking at the CORSAIR BUILDER SERIES CX 500W MODULAR '80 PLUS BRONZE' POWER SUPPLY. Is this any good?

Nah, that's a pretty poor power supply. Cheaped-out capacitors and poor performance in general, it could die on you too soon. EVGA B1/W1 is also poor if you were considering one of those.

For Corsair, only the CXM 450/550/650+ or Corsair Vengeance 450M, 550M, 650M+ are good options. Otherwise, might be better to look away.

Pick tier one or two from this list if doubtful:

I went for the SEASONIC M12II-520 EVO 520W '80 PLUS BRONZE' POWER SUPPLY
