You'll be fine with a good quality 500W PSU for such a system, such as the one you have chosen.

just one thing - wouldn't it be better to buy all your parts from fewer stores or maybe even one store if possible? I know one store wouldn't have the cheapest price for all the parts but it would definitely save on delivery cost. msy is a good place where most of the products they sell are very cheap - http://www.msy.com.au/Parts/PARTS.pdf

Anyways, back to your question: the psu you have chosen will handle everything just fine. I have the same psu (OCZ 520w Modstream) and absolutely no problems with it - no instability issues etc...

and my p4 3.0C comp could be powered by the 400w psu that came with the Thermaltake Tsunami case but my cpu wasn't overclocked and also that I didn't trust that psu on the long run so I bought the OCZ psu.

btw, the cables are quite stiff and hard to bend them etc. - the atx cable is practically impossible to bend...

So, your all set!

the store im buying from will match prices with other stores, so i've taken note of all the cheapest prices i can find.
