Hello and happy new year!

 

Just wondering can someone help me and look over my pc that i just made in Pcpartpicker.com

I want to upgrade my current pc and i watched some videos and read forums to find suitable pc components.

 

Current PC:

CPU - Intel Core i5 @ 2.70GHz
           Skylake 14nm Technology

 

MOBO - MSI B150

 

RAM - 1x8 GB, 2133 MHZ

 

GPU - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (MSI)

 

Storage - 223GB KINGSTON SV300S37A240G (SATA-2 (SSD))
                931GB TOSHIBA DT01ACA100 (SATA )

 

Power supply - Chieftec A-80 (550W)

 

Case - Random s**t

 

I decided to keep Storage and GPU the same and change the rest.

 

Upgraded PC made in PCpartpicker:

 

CPU - AMD Ryzen 5 3600x (cooler comes with cpu)

 

MOBO - MSI X570-A PRO ATX AM4

 

RAM - Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory

 

Storage - 223GB KINGSTON SV300S37A240G (SATA-2 (SSD))
                931GB TOSHIBA DT01ACA100 (SATA )

 

GPU - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 (MSI)

 

Power supply - haven't found yet

 

Case - NZXT H510i ATX Mid Tower Case

 

Pcpartpicker says that no issues or incompatibilities found but  have no idea to believe that or not so i decided maybe someone can help me here.

Nothing seems to be too odd, Your power supply is enough to keep your new build running but I would like someone else on this thread to give some suggestions as well.
