Enough Power?

Hi.

Little help if I may?

Is the EVGA 450 B1, 80+ BRONZE 450W PSU enough for the following as i'm reading mixed opinions on line.

Ryzen 1400
b350 Gaming 3
Gtx 970
Vulcan T-Force 8GB (2x4GB) DDR4
3 x 140mm or 4x120mm fans
two led strips.

Many thanks

Stret

Depending on graphics card model (reference or factory overclocked) total max power draw would be around 300W.
So while not of that good quality PSU it's enough.

Thanks for the response

I'm considering returning it .. is there something i could get for a similar price that's better ( <£50 )

There just isn't much competition in low power PSUs from good makers.
Basically all use very low end/old platforms and components are all chosen for cheap price.
First higher performance PSUs with good components come well after £60.
(coming Bitfenix Formula being one of the cheapest)
