Is 400w enough power?

I have a gtx 1060, ryzen 5 1600, 16gb ram, and need a power supply. Is 400 watts enough?

No. Check out the PSU tier list here to find a PSU that's good.

 

 

EDIT: 400w will be enough, but that PSU is shit, hence the "no". A good 400w would be fine.

*yes*
 

but please just buy a new unit that’s decent for our peace of mind

get this instead. while 400w might be enough, that is a low quality unit.

400 watt perfectly fine. Though the only decent 400w unit I know is BQ Pure Power11. If it's available for cheap in your area 

 

Otherwise, get a corsair cx450/Bitfenix Formula or Whisper 450..

Yes, but you're only breaking even, which also isn't good if you want to over clock. The other thing is, you'll still have to buy another power supply when you want a better GPU in the future, just food for thought.
