[SOLVED] A good PSU

[w.vanzylwvz9]

I have been thinking about upgrading my setup, my current setup contains of
Mobo: Asus PRIME B450M-A
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600
Ram: G skill ripjaw V - 16gb 3200Mhz
PSU: Corsair vs450
GPU: 1050ti 4gb MSI gaming X
HDD: 1tb
SSD: 1tb m2.0

I was thinking about buying a Acer KG241Q 144hz 1080p monitor and upgrade my GPU to a asrock RX5700 XT challanger 8gb.
Obviously I need to upgrade my PSU but i'm not sure wich one I should go for, Any tips or recomendations? Also, are there other GPU/Monitors i should check out? And is this upgrade enough to get 144fps with medium settings?

okay so my final decision is
MSI V381-003R RX 5700 XT 8 GB GDDR6
Corsair TX650M V2
Acer KG241Q 144hz 1080p
I wanna thank you guys both for helping me out!
If you think these upgrades are the best for me i will close the discussion.
Thanks!

Yes, those are the best and have fun.

Overclocking the 5700XT will increase the PSU requirements by quite a bit. With good cooling and changing the power plan tables you could get close to the 2080

. The main issue then performance wise will be the Ryzen 5 2600

The RX 590 will lose the least fps to CPU bottle-necking but a 5700 will do okay.

AA 2600 will handle a 5700xt fine.

Saying a 2600 will handle a 590 better is not really right.

Can a r5 2600 handle the rx 5700 xt on medium settings with a 144fps?

It's good that I did not state that. AMD r5 2600 is going to be a bottleneck to performance, the faster the GPU the worse it will be. The 590 will lose the least fps by virtue of being slowest. See the video I posted, in some games a 5700 will lose up to 20 fps because of the AMD 2600. Still performance is going to be decent at 1440p.

I had the same problem with an Intel 4930k and a RTX 2080. The CPU became a bottleneck. A good balance is were the system is gpu bound in games.

Depends on a variety of factors. With a 2600 you likely wont see high cpu usage as it is a 6 core with 12 threads, but some games may not get 144fps.

Ah but it's not that big of a deal in my case right? Or should i upgrade my cpu to?

I would agree atm but in future that could change. Before I upgraded my CPU I would get dips in FPS that were very annoying but then again I was using a 4.5GHz 4930k (6 cores and 12 threads). DXR will require all the performance you can get from your GPU.

So i should just wait until i think it's neccesary to upgrade my cpu?

You should wait until you are forced to upgrade. Ryzen 4000 series from example may require a new socket and AM4 would then be phased out. Prices could drop for awhile, giving people with an old AM4 motherboard a cheap Ryzen 3000 cpu upgrade.

Ryzen 4000 will be the last AM4 CPU, AMD confirmed it.

AM4 is amazing, I currently have an 8 core 1800X and will upgrade to a faster clock 16 or maybe 32 core Ryzen 4950X, that should give a hell of a speed and efficiency boost.

That's really good news, there is a rumor that there will be a big IPC uplift.

I bought the upgrades, so the thread can be closed now. Thanks for all the help and information to the people who replied!
