I have The Aerocool KCAS 500 Watt Bronze PSU, actually i'm planning to upgrade my PC's CPU with the Upcoming Ryzen 5 3600G which is Rumored to be having 95 Watts TDP

Current Setup :

CPU : Intel Core i5 7400
GPU : Inno3d Nvidia RTX 2060 Twin X2 6GB
RAM : 16GB Dual channel
MOBO : Asrock B250M Pro4 (Will changed either)
HDD : 2x1TB Sata3 (Western Digital)
SSD : 1TB Sandisk Ultra Sata3
PSU : Aerocool KCAS 500W (Bronze certified)

What your thoughts about my PSU? can it handle for my next plan?

Thank You

Aerocool psus tend to be worse than some OEM HP/Dell psus, if that puts it into perspective. High failure rates, lousy to no real protection circuitry, lousy voltage regulation, coupled with unrealistic power limits (push one over 50% load and start praying, heavily) tend to not be good for pc health. Heavy gaming will put your pc @ 250-260w, so just how much faith in a $700 pc are you going to place in a psu that Aerocool can't/won't even give away in any of their own cases.
