this is where you start for a baseline: https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/power-requirements-for-graphics-cards-20

But you are short-changing yourself on the GPU. Save some of that water-cooling money and spend it on a minimum 4GB video card!

I would recommend getting a good quality 550W PSU.

I wouldn't trust it, but that's up to you, that's not a good PSU.

That doesn't have anything to do with it.

It's the main power draw parts like the GPU and CPU/MB that have the most effect.

Okay is a 1060 a good fit for a ryzen 1600?

jankerson · Jan 8, 2018

Yes that will be a nicely balanced for gaming.

last thing, if i go with this: https://www.amazon.ca/SeaSonic-550-Watt-CrossFire-Certified-SSR-550RM/dp/B00918MEZG/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1515462237&sr=8-13&keywords=550w+power+supply

i can have a slight overclock on the cpu?

jankerson · Jan 8, 2018

Hoppin :

No problem at all, you can OC both the CPU and GPU if you want.

That is a great choice, excellent PSU.

Could you recommend any 1060s that have some white on them?

Best just to look at them.
