Is This Enough?

I've been intrested in PCs and I have been researching a bit. Finally I made this list :

I'm only going to play Overwatch and eventually some titles such as Tomb Raider and Uncharted.

After looking around some more posts I thought that the RX 470/480 would be a better pick?
I also don't need much storage and will be getting a HDD (1TB)
Thanks for your time.

You can still play with it but I highly recommend going for an i5 for gaming along with RX 480 or 470. And your PSU is not enough go for a 450watt PSU.

I changed the PSU but I think the I5 is a bit too much money for me. I've looked at many benchmarks and I think the Pentium and 1060 work fine together (Alteast for Overwatch).

the CPU is fine if you don't mind toning down the graphics settings. the PSU however is a bit worrying. consider looking for a better quality PSU. while true the setup could run at 350W, but best to be safe and add some extra headroom going with a 400-450W PSU. a link for reference & recommendation;

consider dropping the wifi adapter. playing online, you're more likely to benefit with a direct ethernet connection to minimize ping. maybe then, you may be able to afford a more trustworthy PSU.

Yes you are right.

DO NOT buy an old VS *50 with green label. They're notorious for dropping the V12 rail and shutdown when under load. Buy that for a gaming rig and you'll soon regret that choice.

At least go for the Seasonic S12II 430W ($89.1) or Corsair CXM 450W ($85).

The SSD Plus is very much a DRAMless model at this capacity, and DRAMless model have lower reliability compare to those that does have a DRAM cache.
