Recommend Power Supply wattage?

[Bravo1cc]

Hi All,

 

I have spent some time looking at what power supply wattage i should have but need a little help telling if this is accurate and if i should get a better power supply, budget isnt and issue but i am also open to savey purchasing and not just buying the best for the sake of a 2% difference?

 

My current build is below.

 

CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 1600X @4.0Ghz

Cooling: be quiet! - Dark Rock Pro 4 50.5 CFM

Motherboard: Asus - STRIX X370-F GAMING

RAM: G.SKILL Trident Z RGB 2x8Gb DDR4 @3000MHz

GPU: Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 1080 8GB WINDFORCE OC

Storage Samsung - 860 EVO 250GB M.2-2280

PSU EVGA - B3 650W 80+ Bronze Certified Fully-Modular ATX

Case: Corsair - SPEC-OMEGA RGB ATX Mid

System Fans: Corsair - ML120 PRO RGB 47.3 CFM 120mm x 4

                                    Corsair - ML140 PRO RGB 55.4 CFM 140mm x 2

 

I used the online tool https://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator and it gave me a recommend power supply of 609W, i know this isn't a real thing and my supply is 650W, is this too close?

 

My Result https://outervision.com/b/eVQe0Z

 

Also is this a site i can trust? Are there better?

I have a EVGA XC Ultra 2080Ti coming very soon and wonder if i need to upgrade, any help would be great. I have plans to move to a 3600X at stock also so no overclocking as it just doesn't seem worth it to me.

 

Many thanks in advance.

550w would be fine, 650w also fine.

Amazing, how do you calculate what PSU is needed or is it just experience?

Experience I guess. You're not the first person who has asked about power consumption of RTX2080Ti or Ryzen 3600x

 

RTX 2080Ti will be around 250-300W depending on the model. Ryzen 3600x is around 85-100W or so IIRC. The rest like HDDs, SSDs, motherboard, fans, etc won't consume much power. Add another 50W or so. 450w would be a little tight with the 2080Ti, but 550W would be fine. Going 650w won't hurt either.

Your current GTX 1080 will consume less than the RTX 2080Ti. There's not much power peak power consumption difference between the 1600x and 3600x.

 

Your parts list has an EVGA B3 650w listed. Not sure if you already own that unit or if you are planning on purchasing it? If you're thinking of purchasing it I would recommend considering spending your money on something else to pair with an RTX2080Ti, but if you already have it then it would work.

So you look at part estimated wattage? Easy enough, yes i own the EVGA B3 650w. I figured this would be enough for my build but get a little paranoid about it sometimes.

Experience and some on the table calculations.

 

Grabbing peak powerdraw. A consumer hardware system with a 9900k/3900x +vega 64/2080ti wont exceed 550w peak powerdraw. And that is peak power.

 

So all you really want is a high quality unit.

If i was to upgrade do you think its worth it? If so what do you think is a high quality part?

From what i remember of the B3, yes its worth it.

 

Grab a TX550M or Pure Power 11 600w.

 

Either are very high quality units.

 

 

Other include MWE Gold from cooler master or bitfenix formula Gold.
