Nope, you are perfectly fine.

550w PSU SHOULD DO FINE RIGHT? (1600/65W and 1070TI/180w)

If you don't plan to overclock if you do I would bump it up to at least 650 watts if you're just overclocking the CPU, and if your dong both the COU and GPU, I would go 750 just to be safe. The higher the overclock the most exponential the power draw.

Actually I was looking for a Ryzen 5 1600 with 1070 TI. Would that be okay or could they be a bottleneck then?

Nope... Not overclocking this build at least Dec the 2018.. :P

You're fine.

 

The dreaded B word is only a worry if you're not getting the performance you want.

Ohkay, I would likely to be running the games in 1080p resolution. Thought it's a 1070 TI... And since my monitors a 1920x1080.

Honestly, your build is fine with a 550W psu. to put it into perspective, a 6700k with two gtx 1080's in sli will use around 450W. I would find it hard to believe that a ryzen cpu + a 1070ti would be more power hungry (even if overclocked) than the system I just mentioned earlier. If you want to numbers, here they are

 

I personally have a 7700k (overclocked to 5GHz running at 1.37V) and a gtx 1080 (100MHz overclock @ 130% voltage) and that system works fine with a 550W psu. 

 

In short, don't worry too much at a 550W psu, it will be just fine for you your build! 

 

And regarding bottlenecks, I don't see anything major or problematic. A 1070ti will be MORE than enough for 1920x1080, especially at 75hz. You can easily get more than 75fps in most games at ultra settings. A few games with that exception are like gta v, witcher, but even then, you'll be getting around 75fps with your setup and monitor. 

 

If you really think that something is bottlenecking the system, just monitor your cpu and gpu usage and see if the cpu is stuck at 100% while the gpu isn't really reaching full load.

Thanks a lot, And i really appreciate the your thoughts, this was very informational. And now I've got a better idea about my build. 

Thanks a lot Mate.

You're likely going to get 100+ FPS in most titles on high or max then.

? Awesome.!!
