I'm looking to upgrade my 6-year-old PC to make it compatible with Windows 11. My main concern is whether a 600W power supply, specifically the Cooler Master Masterwatt Lite 600, is enough for my build that includes a Ryzen 5 7500F, a GTX 1050, and 16GB of RAM.

You'll be good with that setup! The Ryzen 5 7500F runs at only 65W and the GTX 1050 draws 75W from the motherboard. Other components won't push you close to 600W, so you have plenty of headroom.

Yeah, it's more than enough! Even if you decide to upgrade components later, a 600W PSU should cover you for quite a while.

I'd say yes, but keep in mind that the Cooler Master Masterwatt Lite 600 is rated F-Tier in some PSU ranking lists. You might want to look into upgrading to a better PSU for peace of mind, even though your current wattage isn’t a concern.

UpdaterFan: Yeah, the wattage isn't the main issue; it's the quality of the PSU that you should consider here.

PowerPlayer9: Good call on that. It's worth investing in a reliable PSU if you plan to upgrade your rig in the future.
