Hi guys, first post here.

I'm currently building my first PC and I need some recomendations about which PSU should I get, my current build specs are:

MOBO: ASUS PRIME B450M-A
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600.
GPU: Sapphire Pulse RX 5500 XT

RAM: 16 GB (2 x 8 GB )
Storage: 1 SSD NVME & 1 7200 HDD.

Case: XPG Invader

 

I don't have plans to do an OC (and not with this MOBO).

PD: I'm from México, the budget can be roundly the $65.

Here is a link for PSU tiers 

Honestly speaking, Pick anything you like and fits in your budget - just remember try to get a PSU that is atleast Tier c or higher and is rated atleast 80+ bronze.

Thanks, I was actually thinking on that EVGA, but my first thought it was that maybe will be a little fitted.

Look for a corsair CX instead, all of those are crappy.

Scratch that, filter was set wrong. However there still isn't much choice under the $65 mark for a decent unit

Tier lists for building a PC.

 

Motherboard tier list. Tier A for overclocking 5950x. Tier B for overclocking 5900x, Tier C for overclocking 5800X. Tier D for overclocking 5600X. Tier F for 4/6 core Cpus at stock. Tier E avoid.

(Also case airflow matter or if you are using Downcraft air cooler)

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Cpu cooler tier list. Tier 1&2 for power hungry Cpus with Overclock. Tier 3&4 for overclocking Ryzen 3,5,7 or lower power Intel Cpus. Tier 5 for overclocking low end Cpus or 4/6 core Ryzen. Tier 6&7 for stock. Tier 8&9 Ryzen stock cooler performance. Do not waste your money!

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

Spoiler

 

Case Tier List. Work In Progress. Most Phanteks airflow series cases already done!

Ask me anything :)

Well it can be more higher, there is no problem, the point is to bought a good PSU that can handle correctly the PC but also not in something that's exceed too much.

As @Herman Mcpootis said, a Corsair CX450/550 would be fine.
