Hello all,

first time i am building a desktop (for 11 years i used laptops) so i confused on psu. Can you help me to choose please?

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B550-PLUS
Ram: 2x KNG HX432C16FB3/16 (16GB 3200 MHz DDR4)
SSD1: Adata XPG SX8200 Pro ASX8200PNP-512GT-C 512GB
SSD2: Western Digital Blue 1 TB WDS100T2B0B
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX3070 Eagle OC 8G
Chassis: MSI Mag Forge 100R

For the PSU i am thinking those models;

XPG Core Reactor 650G-BKCEU 650W 80+ Gold
Corsair TX650M 650W 80+ Gold
Cougar Cgr-Gs-650 Gx-S 650W

Or should i go for 750W models? Modular or not, i don't think it's important for me. Since i am living in Turkey, it's hard to find more models. I can't order from abroad. Also if you have any advice, i be grateful.
 
Solution
I don't know if writing prices is allowed but this time i will write. Please tell me if not allowed, i'll delete.

XPG: 945,35 TL
Corsair: 907,68 TL

XPG 750W: 1037.20 TL.

But Cougar is 755,73 TL. That's why i ask. Currently 900 is high for me, 1K+ is very high.

The problem with Cougar is most, if not all, their models are made be HEC, unless that's recently changed. I don't consider HEC to be a high end quality manufacturer. The Corsair looks like a good balance of price/quality. Also, Corsair has great market penetration around the globe so in the unlikely event that you were to have a problem, getting service should not be an issue.

The XPG and Corsair units you listed are good. I don't know anything about the Cougar model. 650 watts is fine for the parts you listed. If you plan on overclocking then consider a 750 watt unit. I often find the price difference between 650 & 750 watt units is very small. If that's the case where you'll be purchasing, just grab a 750.
