450 psu or 500 psu?

[solosni68]

I'm running close to 500 wattage and I already purchased a 450 bronze 80+ psu I upgraded to a two ssd WD blue 500gb. My total setup is:

CPU ryzen 5 1500x
MB ab350 gaming k4
Ram 16gb gskill
Gpu 1050 ti ssc 4gb
Ssd 2 WD blue 500gb
Psu 450 what bronze 80+


Should I spend extra cash on a 500 psu it's gonna cost me or am I running good already

You should be fine with 450, what PSU did you get specifically?

The graphics card has a max draw of 75 watts. The CPU has a thermal design of 65 watts. Together, they will not draw more than around 150 watts in total; leaving you plenty of head room if you stick with the 450 watt PSU. I'd save your money.
