Hm... Kinda risky. Before building a custom computer, you need to know that:

- If you choose a low performance power supply, it can cause from constant bluescreen to even system melting and failure.

- If you use for example, a power supply of 1300Watts and your pc uses around 300w, it will become overpowered by the power supply, and it's performance will be slower.

So it is always better to have a good power supply, but you never should buy one that overwhelms your pc's standard needs, because this will cause serious performance issues.

Given that the other parts of your pc do NOT consume a lot of power, the models RX460(75W) and RX470(120W) should be ideal.

In case you have a high consumption cpu and above, the RX460 would be more suitable and less risky.
Keep in mind that you burden the PSU more, having a lot of devices installed, such as HDDs, USB devices, fans etc.
