Theoritcally yes. Ideally you must have room for upgrades.

Please post PC specs.

447w, what a joke. That system doesn't consume more than 150w. A decent 300w PSU is sufficient.

^ That's reality. And a good reason why online psu calculators are widely considered absolute garbage. Pretty much guaranteed at the bottom of that page was a paid sponsor recommended psu they say you should purchase.

That Antec NeoEco could be considered somewhat overkill, but it's still a respectable psu for that pc.
