Question Is my PSU enough?

[aelps]

Im on a 550W PSU and running on a Ryzen 5 2600, RX 560, and an ATX motherboard
im planning an upgrade to a 5600XT, but i wonder if the power is enough.
If not, should I get a 5500XT instead?

Hey there,

Yes, your PSU is fine in wattage.

What exact model though.? Some aren't made equal. If it's not great consider getting a decent 550w. Even a 650w to have some wiggle room for bigger GUPs

Is it the CX550? Can you post a picture of the PSU sticker with it's details.

Either way, it's an okay PSU. Not the best, not the worst. Sufficient for a entry level gaming PC.

Only has a 3 year warranty. So could choke. Might be worthwhile getting a new PSU down the line.

i also unfotunately bought this pc in 2021 (shortage) so looking at prices nowadays i might probably upgrade in the next year or two
