Low end PSU for a low end system : is it any good ?

[electropical]

Hi,

A few years ago (2016), I bought a cheap (brand-new) pre-built for basic tasks (office, web browsing...) ;
It came with a delta 80+ bronze PSU (200W?);
Is it any good? Should I replace it ?

Yeah more like a 200W PSU.

What components is it powering, exactly? If it's just a very basic office PC, with like an APU or something, it should suffice.

Thanks for the input !
First I wrote 300W, than I read "216W MAX", so I changed it to 200W

The system is : i5 6400 + AMD R7 340 + 4 gigs of RAM + HDD + DVD-RW

That 340 is a pretty weird inclusion imo, considering the iGPU on the 6400 is likely not too far off its performance.

 

Either way, that PSU should work. It's far from great, obviously, but it should be okay for the time being. Whenever you decide to upgrade your system (definitely consider at least throwing in an SSD for the OS btw), I'd probably look at also upgrading the power supply though.

Thanks again !
I'm not considering upgrading this system, where I live reselling the components isn't worth it ; I'll probably just keep it and use it as a backup plan ;
