[SOLVED] Building my friend a pc

[thomas4204]

Hey so I am building my friend a gaming pc and the parts we chose are a i7-8700 and a Rtx 2070 2tb Samsung 16 gb 3200 MHz 650 watt psu will the power supply be ok?

A good quality 650W PSU will be fine.

Thank you

Yeah, what make/model is the PSU. Wattage isn't an indicator of quality. Heck, wattage isn't even necessarily an indicator of WATTAGE.

Should work.

Why the I7 8700? It is a locked CPU that performs far worse than the unlocked Ryzen 5 3600, which costs less.

CX650 is fine.

While I agree toward a K-series CPU, the 8700 vs 3600 is a bit of an exaggeration.

What country are you in?

650W is enough.By the which game do your friend play?
If he play net game,I think Intel is good.If he play game in Steam ,I think Ryzen is better.
