500watts is plenty, make sure it is a quality unit. I would get either GTX 750 or 750Ti if gaming is on the list.

if gaming i recommend 500w (good brand) but a 750 or 750ti, not 740. Good luck!

The build looks nice & compatible. As mentioned, but i'll elaborate on it in more detail. If you want a smoother gaming experience & nicer looking images consider the GTX 750 at least, it shouldn't be much more than a GT 740 & worth it for $20-$30 more.

Power supply wise, it depends on the quality of it. And the 12v rail is the key factor you want to consider, as this powers your hungry graphics card & processor. A decent 500W PSU should have at least 30 amps/360W or more on the 12v rail. And it's ideal to have 2x 6+2-pin PCI-E connectors for any future graphics card upgrade you may consider.

(GT 740 appears to be a higher clocked replacement to the GT 640)
