Hello,

 

It depends of the PSU but a good one will work without problem.

[PopsicleHustler]

Depends what kind of 550w PSU it is.

[minibois]

A good quality unit 550w: yes.

 

So it depends on what specific brand and model of PSU you're looking at.

It's like saying, will a car with 4 wheels win this race ? It depends on which one.

worse than the cx 550. would avoid in favor of the non-modular variant. 

 

edit: RM (2019) is also slightly worse than the RMx in some minor aspects, just fyi
