The 3600x is around a 95w TDP While an RX 5700 has an expected TDP of 180w, With tests showing peaks of around 300w. That equates to a max of around 400w, leaving 50w for the rest of the system, with a bit to spare, which is recommended. Please can i have a link to the PSU you are planning to use Exactly?

620 watts eh? The most common PSU I hear people have at that wattage is a Seasonic S12ii or something. If that's the case, it's probably worth replacing with something like a CX550M or something.

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?

I would recommend NOT using that, You would probably be better to buy a new one from Corsair, Seasonic or EVGA, I would recommend around 600w.

Make sure not to recommend by brand, there's a lot more to it than that.
