Hi. I'm about to buy an RTX 4070 Super and was wondering if my Ryzen 5 5600X would be able to handle it ? My PSU is a Cooler Master 600watts.

This is for gaming only and I plan to buy 1440p monitor in the future too.
Thanks

based on the given info, it should be fine with no noticeable bottlenecks, while the PSU should also do a pretty good job handling it.

^^^ assuming your mobo is PCIe Gen 4.0^^^
Yea I do realize Nvidia recommends above 700w for 4070 super..but I'm hoping it would rise up to 500W at max while gaming.
My Mobo is Asus prime b550-plus ATX , guess that would work out too huh? Sorry I'm not too literate on these stuff.

oops, its a 4070 super eh, my bad. the PSU might need to be upgraded. especially if you're going to use it in the future years as well. :/

and yes, the motherboard is PCIe 4.0, no bottlenecks there.

If your going to 1440p your fine except that power supply is pure junk. 550 watts on the 12 volt rail not 600.

pbo + bdie tune?? I'll Google that. Also the card I bought is an oc version. ..( gulp )
I mean that's not that big of a deal, just expect 70-90% gpu usage in some cpu dependant games instead of 99% (especially if you like dlss). It'd probably bottleneck even a 4070 in such.

With pbo tuning you can make the cpu boost better and gain some performance. With b-die ram and tight subtimings it can get another 10-15% faster. Overall a good tune will add 15-20% to it. Or just buy x3d if you want to max out the card.

Thanks buddy..I think store I bought my PC from already did those tunings..
But what about the psu? It's a 600w psu by cooler master elite ( V4 )
