I'm considering building a PC with a Ryzen 5 5600x and a GTX 1070Ti, and I'm wondering if the Corsair CX450 (80+ Gold) power supply is sufficient for this setup. Any insights would be appreciated!

It might be a bit on the edge, but it should work. Just keep in mind that the GTX 1070Ti can pull about 190W under stress tests. Also, there are two versions of the CX450, and one of them isn't as reliable, so be careful with that.
You should be good with the gray label CX450 version. Your whole build will draw around 250W, which is manageable.
Yeah, the CX450 will handle your setup just fine! Just be aware, if you're looking to do any serious overclocking, you might run into power limitations.
While it can definitely boot your system, I'd recommend aiming for at least a 550W PSU for general use, or 650W if you plan on pushing your components hard. Just to be safe!
