[SOLVED] Are TUF power supplies good ?

[Moth254KF]

I've seen a cheap RTX 2060 with a TUF 550w power supply (see link below). Should I give this bundle a shot? Because I dont know if is better or the same quality than a CX 550 ?

Note: I have a 4790 with 16 gbs of ram

Here is the bundle source:

The bundle looks really good, high quality hardware there, but 550W seems to be strict minimum for a PC with the RTX 2060, I'd feel more comfortable with a 650W PSU or higher.

Yes that was a concern, because it seems like is a cooler master power supply, I check in PCpartPicket and other threads that 550 watts is enought for a RTX 2060, but I dont know if the power supply is good quality

IMO, quality is not a concern with that PSU, lower wattage doesn't mean lower quality, it's just for different usage.

So, Should I buy the bundle?

Only if you don't overclock anything.

The 2060 is not a high power card and ASUS recommend a 500w for that model and this will already factor in good headroom https://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboard...ards/All-series/DUAL-RTX2060-6G-EVO/techspec/

Don't listen to that the card has a TDP of 175 watts 550 is fine.
