thanks Just swapped it for asus prime B450-plus as the vrms are better on it and that would allow some overclocking given decent airflow

 

550 watts is more than enough for 330 watt system

 

I cant buy any SSD that costs more than 125$ because in my country import fees are applied to any product that costs more than 140$ including shipping(15$ in this case)

the B450-plus isn't that much better

 

550W is enough but that PSU has issues (any other units you can buy around that price?)

the 650 costs 90$ while the 550 costs 110$ (on amazon because I can't buy from sites that do not offer global shipping)

oh, that's weird... then the 650 is a good option
