What power source do I need?

Go to solution Solved by TheBean,

I do not know what language you are speaking, but I think you mean:

Ryzen 2200g, b450, 1tb hdd, 8gb ram. 

You don't need more than 400W. that is a very basic computer so *minimum* 350W. 

 

If you are going to add new parts to the computer or get faster more expensive parts, then go with at least 500W. 

 

do not listen to @Grigor. that is not a real answer. 800W is a waste. you only need 350W

Take a bit more for future upgrades like 800w 80% GOLD

An 800 watt power supply for an APU? that's literally more than twice what his system would need.

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X • Noctua NH-D15 • MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk • 2x8GB G.skill Trident Z Neo 3600MHz CL16 • MSI VENTUS 3X GeForce RTX 3070 OC • Samsung 970 Evo 1TB • Samsung 860 Evo 1TB • Cosair iCUE 465X RGB • Corsair RMx 750W (White)

 

Peripherals/Other:

ASUS VG27AQ • G PRO K/DA • G502 Hero K/DA • G733 K/DA • G840 K/DA • Oculus Quest 2 • Nintendo Switch (Rev. 2)

dont get me wrong guys its overkill but in future he can upgrade or even if he want he can go for crossfire-sli. The price difference is not that big this is my opinion better to have more instead to need upgrade the psu in time.

Both are dying/dead (won't stop me from using it, but only because I want to/should).
