is that all i need? it seems a little low also im uk

450 watts is plenty. How much do you think a 2600X draws? How much does a 1070 ti draw?

 

For UK, the cheapest good PSU for you is this

Although if you wanted to spend a little extra on a better PSU there are some options.

Yeah the smart series is about as low end as it gets. Grab a Corsair CX450 or 450m, pretty cheap in the US

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 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
