Hello, so these are the specs of my PC.

- i7 6700 (not k)
- 16gbs ddr4 2133mhz
- MSI r9 390
- 1tb seagate hdd
- Evga 600w Bronze b1 PSU.

So I wanted to know if that PSU is able to run a system with these specs. Specifically that gpu. The other components don't use much power. I currently have the PSU in my system and by the looks of it, so far everything runs well but it just gets kind of hot, I don't know the temperature but hot air is blown out.

I am not really looking to return and get a new one as it's a hassle and I can't really afford any other PSU. I understand that PSU is the most important part of the build, but I would just like to know if that PSU will he able to handle this system. And if it will cause any issues.

Thanks in advance.

That should run but its a low end PSU. Its not going to last long, if the PSU is getting hot and you're getting noticeable hot air coming from it then its not long for this world.

If you can return it you should, if you can afford a 6700 and an R9 390 you can afford an extra $20 for a better quality PSU.

Well I got the r9 390 for only $75 from a friend since he was upgrading. And the 6700 was from a prebuilt pc with all the ram and everything. How long would you say the PSU would last? I plan to save up and get a much better psu later on. Also how would I know if the PSU is going bad?
