I have a new build im making and am not used to using radeon gpus, is a 750w corsair psu overkill for the parts I have?






Amd ryzen 5 2600
Radeon rx 590
16(2x8) gb ram
500gb ssd

You could get by with a 650W PSU. If you aren't doing multi CPU there is almost never a time when you will need more than 650W, especially with an 80+ Gold. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Wr...fied-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-ssr-650fx

There is never overkill with PSU size.
You could have a million watt PSU and as long as the voltages were correct you would be fine.

There is overkill in terms of efficiency. Your PSU will have the best efficiency when it is at 50% load. Under max load you want to be no higher than 85% to account for capacitor aging.
