System Specs: Ryzen 5 3600x MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max Corsair Vengeance 16gb(8x2) 3200mhz Asus GTX 1660 Super Dual Fan Evo Cooler Master Masterwatt 550w I put this system together today when my graphics card arrived, everything went great and the system is running amazing. Just one thing thats...

Yeah i dont know about that man. I get it if your on a budget but the power supply is one thing you really shouldn't cheap out on. You're better off putting your money towards a reputable PSU, like the one DSzymborski listed above.

Not an expert by any means so take my word with a grain of salt. The spec sheet you listed there doesn't have any specifications on the power supply, but my guess is because it was a pre-built , the PSU you have in there probably isn't great. 350w is probably pushing it after putting in a RX 570...

Was looking at that PSU as well, forgot to mention i need to buy through amazon as i have gift cards. The txm 550w is 99.99 on amazon. Is it worth it to drop 100w and add $5 for better a better rating when comparing to the CXM 650w?

Yeah i've also seen a lot of reviews saying it did not run at rated speeds with their ryzen chips, mainly that it could only get up to 2933mhz but i also saw a lot of reviews saying it worked out of box at 3200mhz. Its hard to tell when people don't state the cpu/motherboard they paired it with...

Yeah after looking around more i've realized the qvl isn't absolute, and all the kits i listed should work with my setup, thanks guys.

Ah thanks man that helps, i didn't know the manufactures also had compatibility lists, ill look into that for the corsair lpx as well.

I'm putting together my first build but im having troubles choosing good ram thats actually compatible with my motherboard. Im putting a Ryzen 5 3600 in a MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max. The Ram module im considering is the Corsair Vengeance LPX (CMK16GX4M2B3200C16) This is one of the most...
