Hi toms hardware! I have a quick question about the Pentium G3258 and my PSU. This is a link to my 600$ base total build:

Is that PSU sufficient to handle 4.4ghz with Pentium G3258? thanks.

PS. my vcore will be around 1.2 - 1.3

Not a very stable PSU.

Use that list of Tiered PSU, stick to tier1, tier2a, and tier2b.

No, 450W is more than enough. Avoid the CX PSUs.
