Power Supply Corsair SF450 enough wattage?

[simonc021]

Hey! I'm building a system in the DAN A4 case which I am waiting to arrive.

I was set on the Corsair SF450 based on recommendation, but I'm concerned it's skimming too close, and maybe I should have got the SF600 instead? (I can still exchange I think, it's unopened)

My components for the build below:

i7 8700 (non k)
Corsair LPX Vengeance DDR4 2666 MHZ 32GB
Gigabyte Windforce RTX 2070
1tb M.2 (I think, 860 EVO, but considering to splurge on 970)
1tb 2.5" SSD

The coolermaster PSU calculator recommends 410 watts.. but I'm not sure how reliable that is + how close the SF450 would come to covering that..

Thank you!

I see no reason why the 450 shouldn't be enough. With no overclock on the CPU and a 2070, you won't even push the SF 450.

Those calculators usually assume you have a bronze PSU or less. The platinum (or gold) Corsair rating is solid for 450 watt continuos load.

You are completely covered with 450W psu with your setup.
