Way overkill. I would say a decent 500-550W is more than enough.

SeaSonic S12II 520 Bronze 520W ATX12V V2.3 / EPS 1...

I agree,that system will probably draw around 400watts at peak load,no more than that.

if so should i get a fanless 460W Seasonic Gold X series?

Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB 7200RPM, 16MB, SATA III WD5000AAKX should i get this and the ssd ? i this a reliable HDD?

Perhaps it's just me but I wouldn't be eager to get a fanless PSU.

I would get that 520W,that way it will last much longer since you will not be stressing it at all.

A psu fan wont be nearly the loudest thing in your system,it will be that 660ti.

The hard disk is fine, I use one myself no problems since a year and a half, basically you get what you pay for. For that particular PSU here's a review at our very own TPU:

Max 300W is your systemspower demand. So, if you have the money, get a 400-450W golden PSU and you are well.
