can I use 450w power supplies (Corsair VS450 450-Watt Power Supply) for 

Intel i7 8700 processor 

motherboard (GIGABYTE Z390 M Gaming (Intel LGA1151/Z390/Micro ATX/M.2/Realtek ALC892/Intel GbE LAN/HDMI/Motherboards)

Ram 8gb 3200mhz (CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 8GB (1x8GB) DDR4 3200MHZ C16)

RTX 2060 graphics card (ZOTAC Gaming GeForce RTX 2060 Twin Fan)

Antec Prizm 120mm RGB Case Fans 3 Pack and 2 RGB Strips

Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML120L (RGB1.0) CPU Liquid Cooler

You could, but a VS450 is a incredibly inadequate PSU for that. Something like a focus plus gold 550w should do better

i would say get CX instead of VS

you have to know when they say like 650w, the psu wont blow up at 651w. it can probably give more than 650w but the manufacturer says that this is the maximum it can give to keep everything safe. it will most likely just shut down if it draws too much. but who wants his pc to shut down when something draws too much power XD.

 

I think this a good exemple on how to choose a psu:

please forget that calculator. 450w is perfectly fine, but, get dual channel RAM kit (single modul-->half the bandwith. that can even mean 10-15% FPS difference in some games).

 

And get a better PSU. Something like Bitfenix Whisper M or BQ Straight Power 11, or even BQ PP11 if budget is a concern.

 

@chen57 basically, the full load wattage should stress the PSU around ~70%. Because, most modern rigs will consume well below 300w-s in most cases  Ie.: a non-OC-d, or slightly OC-d six core cpu& GTX1660Ti is roughly ~240W draw from wall socket. ~300w with 2060. So that table seems vastly outdated with those huuuuge numbers.
