Hello guys, I'm new building my customize pc, this will be my first one and I have a big doubt regarding which power supply I must use for my system rig.

This are my parts:

 

Motherboard: Asus rog strix b350-f 

CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 

RAM: 2 sticks of 8gb ddr4 2666 MT/s  (pc4-21300) Ballistix 

Storage : 1 SSD sata lll Neo Forza NFS02 256 GB 

1 7200rpm HDD 1TB 

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 560 4GB GDRR5 

 

Is the Evga SuperNova 650 G1 80+ Gold 650W good enough for this system ? Not planning in Overclock at the time, maybe in the near future . Thank you for your answers in advance. 

A Corsair CX450 would be fine for you, as Stefan said.

No, absolutely not. Go for a decent power supply like the Corsair TXM 650w, or the Cooler Master Masterwatt 650w. The G1 is an outdated, group regulated unit that is frankly crap.

No need for a 650W PSU for that.

That PC looks like 125-175, maybe 200W under "Gaming Load"...

 

Even a good 300W would be enough

 

Anyway, get a good 400-450W like Bitfenix Formula, be quiet Pure Power 10.

 

If noise isn't an issue, Corsair CX450 could also be an option.
