600W enough for this Ryzen build?

[kimbroslice21]

I just built an entry level pc for a friend's kid out of couple used parts I had laying around my workstation and a ryzen 5 1600 and a sapphire 7870. Clearly the gpu is going to be an insane bottleneck but I also figured that if I made a ryzen system and the kid ended up liking pc gaming, the cpu would allow plenty of room for upgrades to a better gpu in the future.

Just need to know if the 600W corsair psu I'm throwing in will be enough to give some headroom to potentially OC the ryzen 1600 and support something such as a 1060 or 1070 gpu in the near future. Current build is as followed.

Ryzen 5 1600
ASRock AB350 Pro4
Corsair Vengeance LTX 2x4 8GB 2400mhz
Sapphire HD 7870
Corsair CX600 600W PSU
PNY 120gb SSD boot drive
Toshiba 1TB HDD storage

600 is enough, but CX600 is poor quality-> unreliable. Keep an eye on it or you may want to switch to Corsair CX450M or CX550M in the near future or once the Cx600 shows sign of breaking down. green labeled CX is old and bad. Grey labeled CXM is much better. That gpu is not too weak, still decent. One more comment is ram too slow, Ryzen loves fast ram and 3000+ is preferred.

Ok thanks for the help, is the RAM speed really that big of a deal? Even for Ryzen, all the benchmarks I'm seeing with faster RAM seem like a load of crap. Seems like 2666 is the most "bang for your buck" and everything after that is just a couple extra frames here and there in SOME games. If 2400 is really that bad for an entry level system I wouldn't be opposed to returning it and buying a faster clocked RAM.

You can decide if this is small or large diff: https://www.eteknix.com/memory-speed-large-impact-ryzen-performance/
