it will draw as many Amps as the system utilizes plus some in losses during convertion of voltages. this has more to do with how much power your system draws

not enough to saturate the PSU. im not the greatest in terms of wattage to amperage convertion. the system draws 404 watt according to pcpartpicker and the PSU chosen is sufficient to power the system if that was what you were wondering about

At 120v that PSU can supply up to 5.4 AMPs I figured this by using this math Power(in Watts) = Current (in AMPs) * Volts.

Your system, at 120v and under load should consume 3.5 AMPs.

Thank you so much

Just a note - PCPP overestimates wattages quite a bit - you are more likely to draw less than 3A than 3.5A (about 300w for the system under a gaming load, which is 2.5A, given gold efficiency that's ~2.8A)

Actually that 400W should be very good estimate for absolute maximum power draw of components with both CPU and GPU at 100% load.

During gaming it will be around 300W.

Depending of course how heavy game is and if there are any any fps caps.

Around 300W I would wager a guess. With OC about 400W.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
