Is a 550 Watt PSU fine for a RX 5600 XT?

[Sinister80s]

I just purchased a Sapphire Pulse RX 5600 XT to replace my RX 570 but im wondering if my existing Corsair RM550x powersupply will be enough for it?

The other components I have are a Ryzen 5 1600 and 16gb of G.Skill RGB RAM.

so jest go to there forums and ask there

or

read on line the specs and how much watt it needs

[r.linder]

Minimum wattage recommendation by AMD is 550W -- but there's more to PSUs than just the wattage rating. Not all 550W PSUs are the same, as some can run more or less efficiently, and many cheaper units may even struggle to actually sustain loads above 500W while a few here and there simply can't because while the label claims 550W, it doesn't support that on the 12 volt rail that supplies power to most of the system, including your CPU and GPU.

So yes, 550W is enough, but it needs to be a decent quality unit, which you do have. So as far as I'm concerned, it should work fine.

Good PSU so you are fine, 5600 XT is not that high power draw.

You are fine

depends more on brand/model

cm/thermaltake not for very long
evga/seasonic yes

a quality psu is worth the investment it will last through several builds and/or upgrades
