I recently bought all the components for my first PC at Micro Center, including a Thermaltake Smart 700W power supply. I was trying to save some money, but now I'm wondering if I made the right choice. My CPU is a Ryzen 7600X and I'm using an Arc B580 GPU. Am I going to run into issues with this power supply?

What do you think is the actual mistake here? Is it just the power supply or something else?
That design is really outdated – it’s using a standard from way back in 2008. If you can, try to exchange it for a newer model. That said, it should provide enough wattage for your current components.
Nope, that PSU should provide more than enough power for your hardware. Just keep an eye on it during usage.
That PSU is rated F tier on the PSU Tier List, so I’d recommend replacing it as soon as possible. Never compromise on a power supply, it's one of the most critical parts of your PC!
You should never skimp on a power supply since it's so crucial for your system's stability and efficiency.
Honestly, you might run into some issues with that PSU choice. It’s affordable, but it's considered a pretty basic option. It should work fine for your setup, but I'd suggest keeping an eye on it. If it’s easy to return, you might want to consider swapping it for something like an MSI A650BN or an ASRock CL-650G for better reliability.
