Upgrading GPU

[thunderfire123]

So its been a while since I've changed any components and considering getting a RTX  2070. It says it needs a minimum of 550W but I have a 520W. I'm guess it should be fine since my other components don't use that much. Can someone confirm it'll be alright and if there may be any issues. Also open to other upgrade ideas.

 

Part List:

4690k

Corsair H115i

Asrock Z97

16GB RAM

RX590

Seasonic M12II EVO 520W

Never assume you have enough. If they say 550W, then your power supply should match or exceed it. When they say 550W is the "recommended", they really mean the minimum. My proof that this is in fact what they actually mean when they use the word "recommended" is in the link below. It says the 'minimum' wattage for a GTX 660 is 450. At some point down the line, they changed their tune. If these companies wanted to be more honest with the customer, they would use the word minimum, instead of "recommended".
