Hello guys im planning on, to build a system with this CPU, MOBO and the GPU -

MOBO : Asus Prime B450 - PLUS
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600x
GPU: RX580 Nitro + (8GB)

My question here is will this PSU i have from my old PC which is Antec High Current Gamer 620W be good with the Ryzen 5 and the RX580 Nitro+ because i heard i will need 800W PSU, but that seems foolish to me anyways can someone tell me if i can use this PSU with the build i choose and more specific with the desired CPU+GPU. Thanks in advance :)!
 
Solution
1600x may pull 125w max.
RX580 maybe 200w max.
And this is overestimating.

I would reccomend a solid 550w or more for those components, so 620w is fine.
The Antec HCG 620w is based on a seasonic s12ii platform, so it is well built and reliable, but very dated.

That PSU will work, but if possible I would get a more modern PSU.

What is your budget and location?

Thank you very much, but i just needed to know if the PSU will have enough Power for the components, if i need recommendation of good PSU, when this one fails i will ask you :), thanks again and im located in Bulgaria, here used PC parts are pretty cheap i got this PSU for 60 Dollars which i think for this one is good.

Pretty fair for a comparable Seasonic M12ii PSU new (not sure that antec is made anymore), but I wouldn't pay $60 for it used. Then again, US market and Bulgeria have different markets id assume.

As long as it has been taken care of, it should be reliable with that hardware.
