Need help with this build.

[LightskyTiger]

So, I am building this pc for my friend and didnt think about the strix 1080 being more demanding so I wanted to come ask for clarification.

The build is;

Z370-F Gaming
GTX 1080 Strix
i5 8600k
16gb DDR4 3000mhz Trident Z rgb
nzxt kraken x62
1tb hdd
250gb ssd

 

Corsair RM550x Gold-rated

 

I was planning on OC'ing the CPU to 4.6ghz and the gpu for him but was not sure on how safe it is with the psu I got.

Will it be suitable for the system and overclocking?

 

Thanks in advance!

RMx is a very good psu. You should be able to get a reasonable oc without exceeding the psu limits.

If you haven't already acquired the psu, you might go for a 650W.

Sadly I have it on the way, however, If it'll last even with some OC, im alot happier, we wont be pushing heavy, might even keep it below 4.5ghz
