Hello so i recently ordered a rtx 2060 & Ryzen 1600 with 16gb, MSI B450M PRO-VDH , 1TB with a Hyper 212 Black Edition. I already ordered a 500w 80+ white psu do you think that a 500w psu will be fine with my new pc specs? I Am looking to overclock to so if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

Get a decent PSU, thats not good quality terms. The wattage is fine. In my signature you can find a link to a thread maintained by some very knowledgeable people on the forums that grade PSUs based on components used and extensive research and testing information regarding the units. Find one that fits your needs and budget based on the ranking system.

i agree with the other posters. get at least plus bronze and get from a reputable manufacturer. avoid store brands like rosewill. but 500w should be plenty as you probably wont be doing much overclocking on that 1600. 4GHz best case scenario. But good luck and enjoy you're new build!
