Hello,
The PC specs are:
FX 6300, M5A78L-M/USB3, 2x4GB RAM, GTX 750Ti, 2 HDD's
I am planning to overclock this CPU a little bit. And probably but not sure I would upgrade the GPU to a 1050Ti or 1650 in the future.
Would CX450 be enough to run this system under full load?
 
Solution
I think we had this discussion already. Even with OC on the CPU and a GTX 1650 it's unlikely to use more than 350 watts. Would a more powerful PSU be better? Sure, but the CX450 can handle it if that's what your budget allows. If you can afford the CX550 go for it.

Thank you for the reply sir. And besides, I used the PSU calculator and entered the OC values and it says 379W load wattage recommending psu wattage of 429w. Would there still be some headroom with the PSU?
