Best PSU for AMD RX 5600 XT?
Started by kphipps94 on June 21, 2024
The EVGA SuperNOVA G5 Series Fully Modular Power Supply is really good for that GPU. You can check out this article Choosing the Best PSU for AMD's Radeon RX 5600 XT GPU for more details.
That sounds great, thanks for the suggestion! I was also wondering if the wattage should be enough for mid-tier components or top-tier ones?
The best power supply unit (PSU) for the AMD RX 5600 XT GPU should have a wattage capacity of at least 600 watts for mid-tier components and 700 watts for top-tier components. Hope that helps!
Thanks, @Rob-A-Tron. So if I'm building a PC mainly for gaming with some video editing, would the 600 watts be sufficient or should I go for the higher wattage?
Hey, I've found that a PSU with at least 700 watts is better for top-tier components. Plus, you can check out this TechReviewer article Choosing the Best PSU for AMD's Radeon RX 5600 XT GPU for more information on choosing a power supply.
Thanks for the advice, @bellanational. So, should I go for the EVGA SuperNOVA G5 Series Fully Modular Power Supply or Corsair SF Power Supplies? They both have similar ratings.
I've used the Corsair SF Power Supplies before and found it to be efficient. It might come down to personal preference in the end though. Just check out the latest prices on Amazon.
Alright, thanks for all the input! I think I'll go with the Corsair SF Power Supplies then. Any other tips?
Just make sure you consider factors like power output, efficiency, connectors, cables, form factors, features like overvoltage protection and short circuit protection, and cost-effectiveness based on your specific usage patterns.
That's really helpful advice, @Rob-A-Tron. Thanks everyone for the help! I'll go ahead and order the Corsair SF Power Supplies now.
