Right I am basically gonna rebuild my entire PC, the components will be:

AMD Ryzen 1600
MSI B350m Gaming Pro
8 GB of DDR4 RAM (Will upgrade to 16 later)
And a GTX 1060 6GB version
250gb SSD and 2 1TB HDD's

I am not really planning on doing any overclocks really except maybe a little on the CPU.
I currently have a Corsair VS550 PSU but I simply don't trust it much and I would prefer something that is at least partly modulair. So that is why I am still looking for a new PSU.
I don't have that much money to buy the best of the best PSU. And neither do I have much chance of what to buy sadly.

My first important question is, is a 550 watt PSU enough? Or do I really need a 650 watt?

Second of all, which of the following PSU's would be the best one to get?

Corsair TX550m V2
Corsair CSM 550
Corsair RM550X

For a 650 watt PSU basically the same series apply:

Corsair TX650m (The website does not make clear if its a V2 too but I can most likely ask them to check)

Corsair CSM650
Corsair RM650x


They do also sell some other ones that could maybe work:
Corsair SF600
Be Quiet Pure Power 10 600w

They have some other options but these are just way too expensive for me. So I would really like some help picking a PSU from the ones I just listed, and some links or some feedback of why you suggest that one!

Thanks for the help!
