Excuse me for my English, I'm French...

PSU is out, I'm looking for another...

 MB : MSI - B450 Tomahawk
 CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 2600 (3.4 GHz)
 Ventirad: Noctua NH-U12S Chromax-black
 CG: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 Gaming OC 6G
 RAM: DDR4 Corsair Vengeance LPX - Black (2 x 8 GB) 3000 MHz, Case 15
 SSD1: Crucial MX500 - 500 GB - 3d nand (2.5 inch / 7mm)
 *SSD2: Crucial MX500 - 1Tb - 3d nand (2.5 inch / 7mm)
 HDD : Seagate BarraCuda, 1Tb - 3.5" - 7200 rpm - 64 MB - Sata III
 Case: Thermaltake Suppressor F51
 Fans: Be Quiet SILENT WINGS 3 - 140mm (x2)
 OS : Windows 10 Pro 64bits
 *PSU : Be Quiet! Straight Power 11 650W 80+ Gold ?? or 750W ???

*Components to buy

Airflow:
2 fans Be Quiet 140mn in suction in front.
1 Thermaltake fan 140mn in expulsion at the rear.
1 Thermaltake 200mn expulsion fan on the top.
1 Noctua fan 120mn in suction on the front side towards the back.

In the future I will add two or three SSDs and a HDD.
For the PSU 650W are enough or should I take one of 750W? I think overclock RAM, MB, CPU...

You would be fine with a 450w unit, even with an overclock

You would be fine with 450W but if I were you I’d go with 550W to have a little extra room to upgrade in the future. Like if you want to upgrade your 1660 to a 3070 or something when the next generation of GPUs is released you’d have the power to do it instead of having to buy another PSU.

You could make do with a 550 watt version of what you were considering no sweat. The straight power 11 is solid, also consider the RM550X as well as the be quiet whisper M

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

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.

I agree with Fasauce. I have the RM850x myself which is the same model but different wattage and it’s a great PSU. I haven’t had any problems with it and having those modular cables made building my first PC easier and much less frustrating to do cable management.

Okay for a 550W PSU, so no problem with gaming and overclocking?

Wait what?!

How did this happen??

Did you connect any of the cables incorrectly?

 

If you screwed up the wiring, you could just blow the new PSU, too...

 

Also, SeaSonic Focus+ Gold has a 10-year warranty through SeaSonic.

You can always get in touch with them, and they'll send you a new one.

 

To answer your question, the 650W will be MORE than enough -- even with a second GTX 1660 in there, AND all your extra SSD/HDD, RGB-ness, etc.

I don't know why it happened, I turned the PC on the first time and I went into the BIOS to see, then I wanted to install Windows and it blew up, I turned the power back on and I turned it on again and then it exploded?
I bought it from Amazon, they gave me a refund, now I'm looking for another one...

I don't know if any other components were affected...

Yeah you won’t have any problems with overclocking. I have my 8700K & 2080 Ti both overclocked on an RMx PSU and it does an amazing job. I also recommend it because Corsair offers a 10 year warranty which really shows how much they stand behind the quality, durability and reliability of their power supplies.

Where did you find that??

Was that from the inside of the PSU??

That's a freakin' power FET (transistor)....high power one too...500V, 9.7A rating...

 

If that broke out of the PSU, then yeah...probably a faulty PSU from the factory to start with...

 

If a part like that gave up, I would check your other parts when the new PSU come in...OR...

get them checked out on a friend's compatible PC, or bring them to a local PC shop/store, so they can check them for you.

Yes it's a piece of "Mosfet" that I found afterwards in the case of the PC.

The PSU exploded when I wanted to install Windows, no problem when I entered the BIOS...

A friend's son will come and check the whole PC and help me, but at the moment there are no possible deliveries or authorized exits because of COVID-19...
