How large PSU I need for my PC?

[samtheman123]

So I want to know how powerful PSU I need for my budjet PC.
4GB MSI Radeon RX 480 Gaming X 4G Aktiv PCIe 3.0 x16 (Retail)

120GB Kingston SSD Now V300 2.5" (6.4cm)

Asus H110M-A/M.2 Intel H110 So.1151 Dual

Intel Core i3 6100 2x 3.70GHz So.1151 BOX

8GB Crucial DDR4-2133 DIMM CL15 Single

Is 500 watts enough? I already have a case with 500 watt PSU.
Thanks already!

A 500W PSU would be enough, yes.

Make sure you get a quality PSU. The PSU is the most important part of the computer. If you get a bad one it can give you never ending headaches troubleshooting.

that card needs an 8-pin power connection. check the psu in the case to ensure it has one before going with it. it should if it is a quality unit but the ones included with cases are often junk quality and may not even output 500w but closer to 350 or even less.

look at the psu label and see what it's 12v amps are. it should output close to 500w in 12v power if it is a quality unit. if this number is below 400w, then be very cautious in using it.
