Question OverClocking rtx 2070 super and ryzen 7 2700x with 550w 80+ gold

[puglifebra]

Will my 550 powersupply be able to overclock an rtx 2070 and a ryzen 7 2700x.

Which 550W PSU?

Given the limited overclocking headroom on both a 2700X (maybe 150W peak) and 2070 Super (maybe 250W peak), a quality 550W unit should be plenty adequate.

What PSU exactly?

You should be okay, but i'd want a bit more headroom, if it was my build.

The 2700x might draw about 140w at full load, and the the 2070 at about 240-250w, depending on which model, but you should be fine.
