Alright so I am super close to finishing my first pc build, (Ryzen 5 2600/ Radeon RX 5800) I only get paid once a month and am a kid, my paycheck coming in wont be enough to get what I would like so is there anywhere I could get 1 stick of 8gb of RAM for cheap, and also would it need to be at 3000mhz or should I also cut on that. What power supply would also be a good deal that is at least 500 watts. I don't think I should wait and save becuase I might not have any money at all leftover from my next paycheck

have a look on your local second hand website. a 8gb stick of basic ddr4 should be able to be picked up for $30 usd and a decent psu (reffer to the psu teir list) should be about the same

My rig: r7 1700 @ 3.9/1.35v, 16gb ddr4 3200, assorted rando SSDs, hx 1050, vega 64 1650/1025

Any particular reason you need 500 watts at least? There are some very affordable 450 watt units

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

On my GPU box it recommended 500watts, I know you are super experienced but can you just confirm this once more so I can go to sleep peacefully

Your rig will draw like 300 watts or so, maybe less. You good.

^^^ My OCed X58 Xeon and 1080 Ti can barely pull 550W under full synthetic load, an R5 and RX580 won't pull close to that, 450W should be plenty.
