Is my planned upgrade okay? Ryzen 5 5600 + RTX 5060 Ti on a 500W PSU
wassap
I want to upgrade my current PC and I’d like to ask if this upgrade plan is okay, especially regarding the PSU and overall compatibility.
My current PC:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
- GPU: Palit GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER StormX OC 4GB
- Motherboard: Gigabyte B450M S2H
- RAM: 16GB DDR4 3200 MHz, 2x8GB HyperX Fury Black
- PSU: Chieftec Proton 500W, BDF-500S
- Case: Aerocool PGS Bolt RGB
- Storage:
- WD Blue 1TB HDD
- Silicon Power P34A60 256GB NVMe SSD
Planned upgrades:
- CPU: Ryzen 5 2600 → Ryzen 5 5600
- GPU: GTX 1650 SUPER → Gigabyte RTX 5060 Ti 8gb
- Storage: add a 512GB SATA SSD AS350X Apacer
- Case fans: add 3x ID-Cooling AS-120-K Trio 120mm fans
- CPU cooler: ID-Cooling SE-224 / 224 series cooler
My main use is gaming on FHD
My questions:
- Is the Ryzen 5 5600 + RTX 5060 Ti a good upgrade for this motherboard?
- Is my Chieftec 500W enough for this setup?
- Is there anything else I should change before buying?
I have only 600$-700$ limit
