what is the best power supply for 60$ ?

[therios]

i found the corsair tx550w 80+ gold for 44$ and a 600w evga 80+ bronze for 50$
my specs is ryzen 2700x and asus gtx
1080 strix .. what should i get ?

TXm is good, at that price - excellent option.

Neither. The TX is quite old, the TX-M is far newer design, but it's pushing it with a 2700x and 1080. If that's a TX-M then that's a iffy thing, it'll work and it's a very good psu, but I personally think a tad bit under powered. The Evga 600B isn't a good idea for high draw gaming pc's, more suited to office work.

Power Supply: Corsair - CXM 650W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($64.89 @ OutletPC)

its the tx550m i didn't mention it my bad
what do you mean by iffy ? i will overclocking both the cpu and the gpu

What Karadjgne means is that if you OC both CPU and GPU, then 550 W might not be enough power. 650 W would be safer option here.

Nope, it might have the wattage, but it does not have quality necessary for overclocking.

Full blown, a Ryzen 2700x can easily pull over 250w. Add in another 100w+ for the rest of the pc, and 200w+ for a gtx1080 and you are already at 100% psu usage with no headroom for any mistakes. The TXM is an excellent unit, far superior in every way to the 600b, but for an OC 2700x and OC 1080, 650w is a far safer route, even if basic gaming loads only pull 400w. The most energy economical range is @50%-70% load, as is Thermal efficiency, longevity, any leeway for upgrades like more ram or a different drive, stupid little things like additional USB usage for phone chargers (the upto 5A draw for some apple products is still rather large) etc.

2700x and gtx1080 at stock values. OC can easily add another 150w between the cpu and gpu. And Witcher 3 is not especially hard on an 8core/16thread cpu, add streaming into the mix or any other high core use app, and that wattage will definitely jump up.
