PSU for a gaming rig

[FsyNorth]

So I’m making a build, the parts are: 

CPU Zen 2 (waiting)

motherboard Gigabyte B450 AORUS PRO, AM4, DDR4-3200,

 Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 WINDFORCE 8G

SSD WD M.2 SATA 250GB 

 HDD Seagate Barracuda 1TB SATA3 7200RPM

Corsair Vengeance LPX White 16GB 3200MHz CL16 DDR4

SAMSUNG C24FG73FQ 24inch

I was looking into the Corsair CX650M, will it be enough? No overclocking.

Take a look at the thread below and find the best PSU you can get with your budget.

The thread is a very good reference point when shopping for PSUs and I highly recommend looking through it.

The CX650M that you are looking at happens to be Tier B (Budget):

If you are not doing any heavy overclocking, you'll be fine.

i will totally wait for X570 or B550 because i definetely believe the power delivery will be completely different because all the 18C and stuff.

rumors

 

nothing confirmed, and it'd make little sense anyways

well computex is near so its better to wait for that rather than just buy a motherboard now.

it can currently hold the whole lineup

 

tho i'd personally get taichi/crosshair level motherboards to be safe

The system shouldn't draw more than 450-500W

yeah... but do you know what happens with a dual forward on high-end hardware?

How about yours is it whining?

yep

 

it's a pretty common issue on the cxm (confirmed to me by @jonnyGURU) and pretty much double forward in general

Will you change it in a sense if you upgrade to zen 2?

I don't really Like a loud PSU tbh, but you get what you paid for in the end. Well I'm looking forward for my U9 to whine.

[FsyNorth]

What whining exactly is??

had to check... it seems to be a double forward on the primary side... so it could start whining under higher loads...

 

it's nothing dangerous, just annoying

i have a 1070 ti and a 8600k running on a cx550m

 

i spoke to the guy that literally designs them

 

i can show you data that confirm it's a double forward on the primary, and that it's a common issue with them

 

do you need anything more to confirm?

Well if you buy 650W it will probably not as bad as 550W with 2080 and a OC'd 7 2700X (just a reference).

I wouldn't want that either if I can afford something better tbh, like I wouldn't want my 1000usd PC and put a Feaking CXm in it when I can afford TXm or something better.

Well other than CXm? You can buy something with 550W and just do fine.

i mean... even the cx is a improvement

 

but seriously, you can't tell me if you can afford a 2080, you can't afford a 60-100 dollar psu
