Is my 550w antec truepower classic enough for 5700 xt nitro+ ?

Hi everyone. Long time YouTube subscriber but its my first time here.

 

I would like to ask if my 550w antec true power classic is enought for:

Rx 5700 xt nitro+

Ryzen 5 3600 + stock cooler

Msi b450 tomahawk max

2x16 gb Aegis 3000 MHz

Samsung evo 850 500gb ssd

2x 120 case vents. I assume they drain almost nothing.

 

 

Here is the psu box: https://photos.app.goo.gl/XHnKhY6shvnHmJJBA

3 years old.

 

Before that, on the same psu unit I had:

ASRock z68 extreme3 gen3

I5 2500k + noctua d14

32gb hyper x 1866 cl10, 4x8

And r9 280

Ssd Samsung evo 850 500gb

Ssd plus sandisk 120gb

HDD Western digital 1tb

HDD Western digital 1tb

HDD hitachi 500gb

 

Thanks!

on our PSU tier list it comes in at tier B, which means it's got decent protections and design. Some would say B+ tier is a minimum for a 5700 XT but I would trust it.

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 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Not the best but will be fine. It has the needed protection features and ripple etc should be acceptable. Just dont OC to much.

Thank you for the fast reply!

I will not oc anything. Everything is at stock the way I bought it.

If I will oc, then I will buy a new PSU.

 

Am I allowed to put storage drives I listed onto the new rig?

 

I also want to put another 16gb ram, identical as I already have.

And then I want to remove stock CPU cooler and put noctua d14.

 

Can I do all that with this PSU?

 

I can also replace storage with 1 ssd and just one HDD.
