I am building a ryzen 1600 pc with gtx 1050ti from zotac, the only choice that i have is Antec VP600P or Corsair VS650. I know that seasonic is better but brands like seasonic, xfx, evga etc have poor customer support as compared to the ones that i mentioned so which one should i get as this pc will be used for editing and will be pushed to its limits (i think). So please recommend something. All suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you
Gagan

the cpu uses around 130 watts, the gpu uses 75 watts maximum, unless is a model with a 6 pin power connector, you are not going to use 200 watts under full load

a 500 watts psu should be more than enough

from those the corsair, i do like that brand, antec is nice too, seasonic is also very recommended in this forum

your math is pretty whack... just because the gpu and cpu max power add to 205 doesnt mean that will be the end power use. The motherboard, drives, fans, periphreals all use power and any turbo or OC will take up power. I'd say he'd end up using 250 minimum, and hed want to get like 400 or 450 to be safe.
