Is 600w overkill for this?

AMD RYZEN 5 3600 (with 4.2Mhz OC) 

MSI RTX 2060 SUPER VENTUS

MSI Tomahawk MAX

Samsung 970 evo plus 500gb or similar

WD Blue 1tb or similar

 

Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

You wouldn't need more than 450W for this.

 

I'd get a high quality 450W over a lower quality 600W. Good options would be the Corsair CX450/550, be Quiet Pure Power 11 400W+, the Cooler Master MWE Gold or Rosewill Capstone.

Yes, 600W is way overkill for a ~250W PC... Assuming it's a somewhat decent PSU

Thanks a lot, I'll consider looking into 450 or 500w ones! Or should i just be looking for 450w? I have 500w one for over 9 years now and all these 450 550 650 psu's sound weird to me.

Newer designs are usually 450/500 instead of the older 430/500. 

 

The BeQuiet is still 400/500 though. Hard to find outside Europe.

Im from Russia (technically Europe) and there are plenty of retailers selling bequiet products. 

 

Also that GPU I've chosen has 550w power supply recommendation in the specs.

The combo won't take up more than 300W lol. They say 550W because they want to be safe from lawsuits in case you use a i9 9980XE overclocked or something ridiculous like that.
