budget psu

[trapsy]

i am running a ryzen 5 3600, gigabyte b450 ds3h wifi, planning to get a rtx 3060. will the antec b550 80+ bronze psu be enough or do i need something better? if so suggest some decent budget psu.

Define "budget"? If you're planning on upgrading to an Ampere GPU then I'd assume you can fit at least a decent PSU in your budget.

50-80$

Well, I can't really comment on that since we have no info on Ampere GPUs at all, nevermind specifically a "3060", but I couldn't find any reviews on the Antec B550.

I just hope that it's not an atomic timebomb in disguise, considering the "ATOM" branding on it and how cheap it looks.

Yes, the new, grey label CX models are also good. They're a bit louder compared to the Pure Power 11 but if that's not an issue then yeah, they're also solid options.
