I was looking up some PSUs and noticed that it has more to it than just Watts so I got extremely confused... Based on what people told me, I need a 600W~650W to be able to safely overclock both my GPU and CPU but I don't know the difference between each PSU that provides the same amount of wattage.
How much difference do "Amps" make and is 550W enough or should I go for 600w or 650w?
Notice I might upgrade my graphics card to something equivalent to a 1070 or 1070 ti in a year perhaps.
Specs:
CPU: Ryzen 2700x [Stock Cooler]
Motherboard: MSI x370 Gaming Plus
GPU: MSI Gaming RX 480 4GB
RAM: 2x 8GB G.Skill Sniper 3000
Hard Disks: 2x WD HDD, 1x SSD 120GB
Fans: 3x 120m
My current PSU is the Cooler Master 500w that came with the k380 CM case.
Nothing is overclocked at the moment and the PC is running just fine.
