Should I be worried about an insufficient power supply for this system…?

I just recently bought a gaming desktop, the cyberpowerPC gamer master 2272
This system comes with a AMD Ryzen7 2700X and a GTX 1060.

What I am concerned about, is that this specific system includes a 450 W power supply. I am a little bit concerned and unsure if that included power supply is going to be sufficient for this system. I do not overclock, or ever will, I will only be adding one extra hard drive to this system. So I am wondering whether or not this power supply is going to be okay for this system [long-term]?

I'm actually (slightly) more optimistic now vs when I came into this thread.

Heading to CBPC's website and looking at the configurator for the 2700X + 1060 setup...
The ONLY 450W unit the offer is a CX450 from Corsair - a pretty decent PSU.

They don't have any generic, unspecified 450W units (they do for 400/500/600W etc).

By no means a guarantee you actually got a good PSU in there, but I'm a little more optimistic ....

Which "450W" power supply? That's the issue with pre-builts, they're not specific on the component choices.

Can you see the labelling on the unit?

Depending on the quality of it, a 450W can be totally sufficient for a 2700X + 1060 at stock.
