2*8g of ram, G.Skill Trident
6x 120MM RGB fans
1*30LEDs Strip
1 Hdd 5400 one

can i use the 5700 XT on a Cooler Master MWE 550W, 80+ White?

I dont OverClock, i keep everything stock.

im planning to get a Power Color RedDevil 5700 XT.

Yes.

though that psu is not the highest of quality.
It wont explode, but i would suggest swapping it out whenever possible in the next year or 2.

Will it run ? Yes. It's advisable to use this PSU with this GPU ? Nope.

While certification is a good indicator, along with recognizable brands
The best way is to look at the psu tier list (just google psu tier list)
anything above a B should be good and not cause any issues, with higher tiers more for, more efficiency, less noise, sizes maybe, and if youre looking at a higher end system maybe getting a higher tier+higher wattage psu is a good idea. or all of the above.
