Is my 500 watts power supply enough?

[annoymous603]

so I am building a new computer with these parts. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/j2tV6s I am wondering if I'm good with this 500 Watts power supply if i overclock my CPU.

Yes but don't get that EVGA PSU. You'd be better off with a Corsair CXM or CX.

I already bought the power supply would I still be good?I bought this one just because its modular.

It is not a good PSU. It will do temporarily but I would look to upgrade it at its earliest.

If you can return it I would, then buy the Corsair CXM, its semi modular and for budget PSU pretty good.

Get a better power supply you spend 1300 bucks on parts and buy garbage.

Spending a bit different you could of got a better board, 16gb of memory and a good power supply for less money.

That PSU is complete garbage.

If you can send it back do it and get a higher quality unit like a Seasonic Focus Plus, EVGA G2 or G3, or Corsair RMX.
