This is the power supply I'm looking at:

I'm looking at a 1660 ti for my GPU and a r5 1600 or 2600. Is this a good choice for me? Does it have all the protections I need? Thanks guys!

Yes it's a decent enough PSU.
Probably the most budget friendly PSU that is still decent enough quality.

This one would be better, in my opinion.
