yes, enough watts.

 

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

It should be fine. But the higher the power supply the more center of the effencicy curve you will be.

not really

 

PSUs are usually the most efficient between 40 and 80% load.  For his 650W that would be between 260W and 520W.  That system is going to use somewhere around 350-450W while benchmarking, so he's right where he needs to be.  Sure, 80+ gold would have been better for efficiency, but seeing as the OP already has his PSU there's little we can do about that.

 

Not that it matters much, most 80+ rated PSUs have a fairly flat efficiency curve.  All you're doing with an oversized PSU is making sure you have the headroom in case you want to go for SLI/crossfire ... or throwing away your heard-earned money for efficiency you'll never actually achieve and certainly won't earn back through a reduced electricity bill.

Thats a very high quality psu and both kaby lake and maxwell are very efficient. This will work just fine.
