Question Will my PSU work with this rig?

[iFrostice]

I want to upgrade my old pc but i don't know if my PSU is powerful enough.
The rig i want to build is:

• Ryzen 5 3600,
• Asus ROG Strix RX 580 Gaming,

-Asus ROG Strix B350-F Gaming,
-HyperX Predator RGB 8GB DDR4.
The PSU is this one: https://www.njoy.ro/PSU/titan500 .

I will get A new psu, that is not good quality.
BTW, pls update your BIOS first to support 3rd gen
is your ram 1 stick or 2?

580s use an 8 pin pcie power connnector which your psu lacks. You can use a 2x6 pin to 8 pin adapter, but i know nothing about that psu.

I would suggest uograding to a psu from a reputable brand.

I know the processor isn't factory supported, i have an Athlon 200ge and i can use it to update the bios

It has a 2x6+2 pin PCIe...

I wouldn't use that PSU, even with just a 200ge. I would be too afraid of it dying and taking my other hardware with it.

 

[iFrostice]

The brand is pretty well known in my country. Let's assume it doesn't catch on fire or anything of this kind, will it work?

 

[Phaaze88]

Yes, it will work... but do you really want to play that game?

*looks at specs
372w on the +12v rail.
"Nvidia SLI and AMD XFire ready."

WUT

 

[NightHawkRMX]

You cant assume those things.

It should theoretically work since it has enough wattage and the required connectors, but theres no telling what could happen.
Low end power supplies can fail and kill your entire system costing much more than a decent psu.

No!

Nobody enjoys using nJoy power supplies!!

And, just to be clear, the "guru" part of @jonnyguru 's name is particularly with regard to expertise on power supplies.

If he says to avoid a particular power supply, then do not walk away from that power supply . . RUN away from it!

which country is it?
That poor quality psu may bring down your gpu with it.

check if you can find Corsair CX550, good budget choice.

Thank you for your answers, i will try to change my PSU too. The Corsair ones that have over 500w are pretty expensive here... Can you suggest me a budeget one from these? : https://www.emag.ro/surse-pc/vendor/emag/c . For those who don't know, 1USD=~4 RON(Lei)

 

[NightHawkRMX]

Budget?

This one is sold by a partner and the partners of this shop have a pretty bad reputation.

On the website, the absolute cheapest I'd consider for this build would be Corsair's VS550 @ 251lei / $59 USd
It's not ideal, definitely a budget built unit and only rated for it's listed output at 30'C... but at it's pricepoint I'd be much more confident in it than anything else it's 'competing' with.

The VS650 is only marginally more at 276 lei / $65 USD, and would give you some additional headroom, and shouldn't present an issue if/when it's running out of 30'C spec...

"Bad" in what way? For delivering the product? Customer service? etc... etc.

Both and much more. Sometimes they deliver the product broken, sometimes the wrong one. If you buy from them is like you don't get any warranty with your product. If what you bought malfunctions, they will simply blame you.

CX450 then. You don't need 550W. Most of those 550Ws arent even as good as a CX450.

At least the corsair vs550 , is hated by too many people but does the job for sure ... At least will not blow up your computer if something went wrong some day

I use the corsair vs550 for more than 3 years , now have the same gpu that you will have and a cpu with more TDP ...

Seasonic S12II-520 Bronze, 268.96 Law
hands down.

 

[NightHawkRMX]

The s12ii is likely your best bet.
