before you say anything I know this is a odd build I will be replacing the motherboard to a AM3+ Socket and then getting a FX 8350 ... Anyway, will cx600m be enough to power the components listed above, if it makes any difference I'm using the Zalman 11 Mid tower case and have 4 case fans operational
 
the cx series has changed manufacturers and is no longer suggested for any kind of build. corsair decided that using cheap parts and still charging a lot for the psu was better than making a solid unit for builders.

do yourself a favor and get a better psu such as the xfx 550w or other decent ones. loking on part picker this is the best psu at a decent price right now in the 550w+ range.

this would be a MUCH better psu for your system especially if you move to an 8350 and want to oc it. the cx unit won't handle the oc very well.
 
why begin with an APU and a 670 ?
fx8350 doesnt use am2 socket. it uses am3+ so why not begin with that and not waste money on a APU & FM2 motherbd that you'll just have to try and sell in a month. If you have to start with a fx4300 that still better than the apu IMO
 
@popatim .. because I had no idea what I was doing at the time, and what your saying obviously makes a lot more sense, i'm just asking would a cx 600m power those components :)
 


I understand the CX supplies are made of cheap parts, I simply wanted to know would it power that build and you've given me the info I need.. thank you
