[deathfrankcore]

Yes, your system should be demanding about 472.5w from the PSU with the GPU and CPU together + other stuff like the fans, drives/disks, RAM, etc.. should add up to about 515w.

 

What model is your PSU?

Okay, you're fine then. Just make sure you don't overclock. And if you do want to overclock then i'd consider going for a 650W or 700W reliable PSU.

wattage amount is suitable, but the quality leaves much to be desired. It will be functional, but a replacement PSU in the near future would be recommended.

it's a good option. The cheaper, lower wattage version would be also a fine option

The 2080 Super consumes about 250 watts, the CPU consumes less than 100, so that would leave you with over 200 watts of headroom for everything else. A motherboard will typically be around 40, and everything else is single digits in watts.

Uhh so I received this email saying that they can't complete the order because they did not receive the payment so they are canceling the order (bank and Amazon says that payment is good) but I will be able to buy it again tomorrow with free shipping for being sorry (even if shipping was already free) . Probably is just a scam and I think they will ask me for more money (but I won't give them a cent more)
