Back a couple months ago, I built a computer around the Ryzen 3 3200g, with no dedicated graphics alongside it. I bought this 430w psu with the build, as it was a great price and I knew it would be sufficient for the power draw of the processor. Now, I have upgraded to a dedicated graphics card, this Radeon RX 5500 XT, with the same processor as before. Is my current power supply still sufficient? Who should I trust to tell me if it is? If it is now too small for my power draw, what wattage should I aim for to upgrade before I install my new card (keeping in mind I would like to upgrade my processor to a midrange option at some point).

 

Thank you!
