Help with my PC build

[Jaimethebond]

 

I hope somebody reads my PC build and help me in telling what power supply should i buy

 

My PC build:

• Motherboard MSI Z370 A-PRO
• MSI GTX 1070Ti Gaming 
• Intel Core i5 8400
• Corsair 16gb of RAM 2666mhz
• My case is phanteks P350X
• WD ssd and WD 1tb 

So i need help to get a good power supply, I’ve seen that i can get a 500W spu but i don’t wanna go the lowest, help please ):

why that mobo? could just get B360 boards since this mobo isnt good for future overclocking CPUs with more than 6 threads anyway. anyway

 

 

PSU wise, will you upgrade the CPU and GPU to more power hungry parts in 5 years time?

any certified 600 watt psu will be fine. a 500 is more than enough but a 600 will give you head room if you want to upgrade or overclock that locked CPU

The system will draw under 300W, so there's plenty of headroom for overclocking on a good 400-450W PSU. 

There are plenty of crappy 80+ rated 500-600W PSUs. Just from the EVGA branded ones we have the B1, B3, N1, W1 G1, NEX G and NEX B.

Without knowing what's available or the prices, the Straight Power 11 450W, Whisper M 450W, RM550x or Formula 450W. 

The PC will draw under 300W, so there's plenty of room for overclocking with those. 

Here's Anandtech's 7820X system's wall power draw with a platinum efficiency PSU. The PC draws ~90% of what's indicated from the PSU.

As you can see, even a stock Vega 64 will run fine on a 450W PSU (though the Whisper M and Formula 450W has OCP set at 25A for the PCIe 12V rail, the Straight Power 11 can disable multi rail operation if needed).

How did you calculate under 300?

The numbers in the picture above were with a 7820X on a Corsair 860i. Looking at the review on Jonnyguru, we know that the PSU has an efficiency of about 92% at around that load. 0,92*318W=293W. And that's with an X299 system, so OP will draw less with an 8400 on Z370.
