Is RTX 2060 right for my build?

[Sane181]

first off, let me list my specs:
ryzen 7 1700 (OC to 3.4ghz) 
wraith spire cooler
asus rog strix rx 470 OC 4GB

2x8 gskillz ripjaw V series

EVGA 500W PSU
ASUS Prime B350-E
1TB western HHD
250gb samsung 970 EVO SSD

 

So basically, I want this build to be able to stream games such as apex legends at around 144 fps since I have a 144hz monitor. I really hope a RTX 2060 would help me achieve this since my current gpu is outdated and I heard its bottlenecking my cpu. Thank you for reading this and helping me in advance, thank you.

I'm currently in a state of mind to start streaming at 720p 60fps and not 1080p cause I'm not partnered on twitch. I'm not entirely sure if my setup with rtx 2060 can stream apex at 144+ fps at 1080p so I think streaming at 720p 60fps should be fine. If I had a stronger cpu and gpu setup I would consider streaming at 1080p 60fps for example if I had an i7-8700k and a RTX 2070.

Also, can i get away with my 500w PSU while overclocking my ryzen 1700 to 3.4ghz and my rtx 2060 being factory OC?

Upgrade the psu.

 

Look at this PSU tier list, Go nothing lower then tier B.

oh boi  , looks like I cant get away with 500w. Also thanks for replying to my messages. Another question if you dont mind me being too careful do you think my motherboard would fit with the gigabyte rtx 2060 OC edition? I'm not really good at building PCs.

-Motherboard will be fine

 

-500w would be fine, however your PSU is subpar and may actually damage your components later on... be smart to spend 80-100 bucks now.. rather then a whole new system later on.

 

Your cpu will consume ~160w OC'd under gaming load + 180w~ from your gpu = 340w So you'll be fine (All averages)

550w EVGA g2: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0106RDI3W/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_ZZ60Cb0XXSK4W

The 750w would be fine as well. The g2 line are all solid PSUs

[Sane181]

Ok ty. Sorry if I asked too many questions, just trying to have zero problems with the rtx 2060 upgrade. The only problem besides the PSU and if it bottlenecks is if my gigabyte rtx 2060 would fit and I hope it does.
