Hello so not last week i decided to build my first own pc for editing and i build it but...

So here is my configuration: 

 

Nvidia GTX 1060

Ryzen 1700x

SSD Samsung 500Go

HDD 2To Seagate

Corsair VS550 (The bad guy)

Bequiet Pure Rock

MSI CMA-MS-A320M-P-VDP

 

so when i do the calcul in simulator they give me :

It doesn't matter what wattage you go for so long as the unit is of decent quality, and your VS from Corsair is not a very good unit.

 

Your system will use 200W under load without overclocking. A Corsair CX450M would be plenty.

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