Indeed. I run a GTX580 with i5-2500K at 625W with no problems. I doubt my setup even takes 500W, let alone 625W. My PSU is Enermax 625W so I'd like to recommend that as it has lasted me 3 upgrades on my computer and it's still kicking.. But, it probably costs too much for your budget ($140). Quality comes with a price, after all.

Like I said in my first post, don't forget that just because it's a well known brand, say, Corsair, doesn't mean it's good. Read some reviews on the web for the PSU before you buy it.
