Hey guys,

Im upgrading my pc soon, ive also chosen to upgrade my PSU as im now running a Techsolo 650w psu which seems to be unstable. So i'm upgrading it to a be quiet! System Power 8 400W.

My pc will be:
AMD Ryzen 5 1600
Corsair Vengeance 2x4gb DDR4 @3000MHz
MSI B350 PC MATE
Gigabyte GTX 1060 6GB Windforce OC
1TB Toshiba HDD
2 Phanteks case fans
Stock CPU cooler

pcpartpicker says it should be just fine but i want to be reinsured of it

Thanks upfront!

Both PSU are not reliable. 400 is pushing it. 500+ is recommended and get a corsair cxm or seasonic any model instead.

Cooler Master MasterWatt Lite 600w, would this be a good choice?

No. your PSU only supports 29 AMPS. You card and CPU alone pull 36.6 AMPS

200W CPU
215W GPU
415W TOTAL
415/12V RAIL
36.66 AMPS ON THE 12V RAIL.
