Hi,

I am building a new PC and wonder what PSU I need.
Is the one I've picked a good choice or should I go for something stronger like a 750 or 850?

Need advice!

Parts:
Corsair RM650x v2
Gigabyte x570 Aorus Elite
AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 3.7Ghz 32MB
2x WD Blue SN550 NvMe SSD 1TB M.2
Corsair vengeance LPX Black 3200Mhz 2x8GB
Corsair cooling hydro H100x / 240MM
Fractal Design Meshify s2
Msi Geforce RTX 3070 8GB gaming X trio

That is a good quality 650 watt unit, it will be enough.

If you maybe plan on upgrading in the future, or intend to carry this psu with you for multiple cycles, I suggest getting something with a little more wattage, not cause you need it, but for the headroom.

Ok thanks!

I am thinking about swapping it for a PSU with 850W(same brand) for some headroom. I guess that will do?
