(Sorry for late reply)

Even after adding all components mentioned above & considering 1060/480 as your supposed GPU 500W will be enough for you.
Go for EVGA SuperNova 550/Corsair CX550 M /RM550 /Seasonic SSR 550/G550 according to brand preference.

You will have to spend USD 40-60.

Was hoping they hadn't really bought it yet since it's a low end HEC model.
