Is it safe?

I'm currently building a ryzen system and I'm really getting antsy waiting for the power supply to come. It is an EVGA supernova g2 850w. It's my first build and I'm pretty excited to fire it up. I have a brand new in the box thermaltake smart 600w but I haven't heard the greatest things about and that's why I purchased the EVGA. Do you think I can use the thermaltake safely for a few days until the other unit comes in?

For a few days? Yeah, probably. Of course, if not using your system much for the peace of mind is worth it to you, that's a viable option. 

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 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

How many watts do I need?
