Hello,i wanted to ask a question about my first PC build.I have decided everything that i would buy,except psu.My friends are telling me that every psu is ok and usable,but i am skeptical about it...

Here are the specs:

Nvidia Gtx 1660 super

Amd ryzen 5 3600

Ram 2x8gb 3200mhz

Aorus pro elite b450 motherboard

Ssd 240gb and HDD 1tb

psu fsp raider II

Here is the link of that psu:https://m.gigatron.rs/napajanja/fsp_napajanje_raider_ii_650w__ppa6503309-285482?recommender_box_placement=productpage_similar&recommender_box=quarticon

Is this good psu for this build?

 

P.S:In my country,most of the well known companies like corsair,be quiet!,evga etc. are unavailable so there is a small variety of psu-s...

Looks like a decent option.

A step up/another option would be the Coolermaster MWE Gold:

What is the difference beside certification?Energy bill is really cheap here so there is no problem with that(if i remember correctly from another forum,from bronze to gold 300rsd-2.8$ per year...).

The efficiency label is different, but that is a minimal difference (88% vs. 90% efficiency). Cable set is basically the same too.

 

I use the PSU tier list on this forum as a source for my PSU judgements and the Coolermaster PSU is a tier above the FSP:

 

FSP's tier: "Tier B - Recommended for entry level gaming systems only, preferably single PCI-e power connection on GPU, desktops intended for prolonged 24/7 usage."

CM's tier: "Tier B+ - Recommended for midrange gaming systems and workstations with single GPU setup"

I highlighted the single PCIE power connector part, as that is the main differentiating factor between the two tier. It will more safely give you the ability to upgrade your GPU in the future, should you choose to do it.

 

The FSP is a still a good choice for your build now, just thought I would share an alternative.

Will fsp psu affect my performance in comparison with cooler master psu?I am already over the budget,just asking if it is really necessary?

For your current PC, both PSU's will work with no issues.
