Seasonic X560 is good. You could also get away with a lower wattage PSU if you don't intend to overclock and run at stock.

Yeah, an X560 would be an excellent choice even if you did intend to overclock.

The X560 is enough power, but it's pretty expensive for what you need. Dragonbat's recommendation is pretty solid, and costs much less.

Maybe i'll add corsair h80i later, is it still be okay?

It's lying. Any good quality PSU with the necessary power connectors for your graphics card (2x6pin) is more than sufficient. With no overclocking, your system should consume only about 250W at full load.

Can you tell me where you are buying from so I can make a recommendation?
