[BeanGaming123]

hey guys im building a pc heres the specs that i chose
ryzen 3200G

ARCTIC Freezer 34 eSports DUO CPU Cooler

MSI B450 Gaming Plus MAX ATX AM4 Motherboard

Corsair Vengeance LPX 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory

MSI Radeon RX 5500 XT 8 GB GAMING X Video Card

Thermaltake Smart 500 W 80+ Certified ATX Power Supply

Corsair HD120 RGB 3-Pack w/Controller 54.4 CFM 120 mm Fans

instead of the rx 5500 i might change it to a gtx 1660

500w should be sufficient.
But, it looks like the thermaltake smart psu is tier 6 on this list:

Do not go cheap on a psu.
Look at something like a seasonic focus 550w

2 issues I see are single channel ram and the PSU.
With Ryzen you want/need dual channel for best performance.
The PSU is not a good place to skimp and that PSU is not a good unit. Problem is right now PSU prices are nuts. Even a decent budget model like a CX 450(is enough for the rx 5500 or 1660) is $70 and the 550w version is $80.

500W is enough but I don't recommend that brand. Go for corsair if you have a low budget.
