Posted January 30, 2020 The brand and wattage is good, the 1 year warranty and bronze rating not so much. If you do decide to upgrade the PSU (not a bad idea) look for a Gold rated 650w.

Brand names don't matter with power supplies, every company has made junk before. 550w is more than enough for a 3700X+5700XT, and an 80+ gold efficiency rating doesn't mean it's good.

Posted January 30, 2020 nonetheless, m12ii lacks UVP, uses group regulation and is based off a platform that's over 10 years old by now i recommend you get something new, if you need help with it, state your budget and country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you do, this is a very outdated PSU and won't play out nice with all these current gen hardware. Also Ryzen doesn't "overclock" in the core frequency sense anymore, just enable PBO. Your overclocking will be on the GPU and Memory. Personal Desktop": CPU: Intel Core i7 10700K @5ghz |~| Cooling: bq!

Posted January 31, 2020 Author okay guys thanks for the replies. but its kinda split answers. I've read a review online that my current psu is outdated. but does this means its not SAFE to use it with 3700x? I might just use b450 board and buy a new PSU if its not recommended to use my current psu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually yeah... you could buy a B450 Tomahawk which is pretty much as good as any decent X570 and then upgrade your PSU to something newer. Please refer to the Tier List in order to buy a good PSU.
