How much can this PSU support?

http://www.corsair.com/builder-series-cx430.html
Corsair CX430

430 Watt
+12 V Rails (1)
+3.3 V (20 Amps)
+12 V 1 (28 Amps)
80+ Efficiency

My retailer is on deal for $30.

I'm buying a custom system as a gift for an elderly couple. It's a multimedia PC that will hopefully last them forever (they use a Pentium IV )

Supporting a
i5 2320 (95Watt) + GTX550 Ti + 7200rpm (This is a bit imbalanced)
OR
Phenom II X6 1045T (95Watt) + HD6570 + 7200rpm

No OC on anything. I want a safe PSU. not one that barely supports it and has a lifespan of 1 year. More like 10 years. (currently under $400 excluding the HDD/RAM/monitor/keyboard/mouse that I have so many spares of)

Thanks
