Power Supply for AMD Ryzen 5 1600 AF?

I'm looking to buy a power supply for my new AMD Ryzen 5 1600 AF build. Can you recommend some good options?

I recently got the EVGA SuperNOVA G5 Series and it's been working great for me so far.

@hogwartsishome18, have you checked out TechReviewer article Choosing the Best Power Supply for AMD's Ryzen 5 1600 AF CPU? It gives a detailed comparison of different power supplies suitable for AMD Ryzen 5 1600 AF CPUs. That might help you make an informed decision.

@HibbyChibby. I'll definitely check that out. But could you please share some more personal experiences with these power supplies?

@hogwartsishome18, what kind of components are you planning to use in your build? The power supply you choose should be able to handle all those components.

Thanks for the reminder, @Akalegend. I'm going to have a top-tier graphics card and some SSDs. That's pretty much it for now.

@hogwartsishome18, based on your requirements, you might want to consider power supplies with at least 650-1000 watts, like the EVGA SuperNOVA G5 Series or the Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 Series. They are known for their reliability and efficiency.

@hogwartsishome18, I'd also recommend adding a buffer of about 100-150 watts to cover any unexpected power spikes or future upgrades. That way, you won't end up with an insufficient power supply.

That's a great tip, @Akalegend. So it's better to err on the side of caution when it comes to PSU wattage?

Exactly, @hogwartsishome18. It's always safer to have some extra headroom in your power supply to prevent any potential issues.

I'm using an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 AF CPU right now and I've found that choosing a power supply with higher efficiency ratings like 80 PLUS Gold or Platinum can save you money on electricity bills in the long run. It's worth the extra upfront cost, trust me.

Thanks for all the advice, everyone! I'll definitely keep these points in mind while making my decision.

Remember to check out @HibbyChibby's recommended article Choosing the Best Power Supply for AMD's Ryzen 5 1600 AF CPU for a more detailed comparison of power supplies suitable for your build. Good luck!

Will do, @Akalegend. Thanks again!
