Is 650 watts enough?

SpaceSoldier 01

I'm looking to build a PC and I'm wondering if the power supply I've picked will be enough for my parts. Here's the list.

Ryzen 5 3600

ASrock B550M Pro4

WD Blue SN550 1 TB

RTX 3060 ti Founders Edition (when in stock)

NZXT h510 Elite

Corsair CFX 650 W 80+ Bronze

So long as it's A good quality 1, it should be fine.

At me or quote me, I want to hear your opinion.

 

Hopefully anything I say is factually correct. Sorry for any mistakes in advanced.

Not related to the PSU but change that case, it’s really bad. A White Meshify C is significantly better.

geometry is hard
b550 > x570

Because of the spikes that the new 30 cards have, it wouldn't go astray to go higher. 800 would be more than enough. But you probably can get away with only 650.

This is the PSU.

It has RGB! So it's good enough for me.

3060 supposed to need a maximum 650w. The measurements are with 10900k is ryzen 9 5950x according to manufacturer

Even my mom's cheap chinese case is significantly better than an NZXT at this point, for real, 1 intake fan vs 0, but that's what consumers like apparently, no airflow, oven glass and LEDs everywhere.

 

650W is enough though.

What cases would you recommend? Preferably ones with RGB.

Just a quick FYI. They started changing the controllers for that model to a slower one, from the SM2262ENG to the older SM2262G. Well, at least the SX8200 Pro's were changed, which is what the Gammix is, but with a heatsink, so I would be wary with them. the Inland Premium would be a better choice if the S11 Pro controller was changed (don't know until you get the drive and look at the controller)

I mean, it took it's advertised speed of 3500/3000 down to 3000/2600, at least according to the CrystalDiskMark benchmarks I ran. I bought a SX8200 Pro on sale after the controller change to see, got one with the SM2262G controller and returned it after confirming that it is indeed slower than the S11 Pro I have. Of course, they could still have old stock of the S11 Pro (or didn't change it for that model), so YMMV

What else would be a good 1 TB SSD and is the Corsair iCUE 220T RGB a good case?

220T is good, but a little tight. And honestly, looking at the prices, it's not worth the cost.
