I'm putting together a new PC build and I'm considering using an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X and an RX 6700XT. What would be the best 650W power supply for this setup? I'm looking for something reliable but also cost-effective if possible.

If you’re looking for a solid budget option, I’d recommend the Corsair CX 650. It’s known for good quality and performance without breaking the bank.
For a high-quality choice, the Adata Core Reactor II is great. If price is a concern, you can't go wrong with the Adata XPG Kyber, Corsair CX Black Label, or MSI MAG A650BN.
I’m currently using the Corsair RM650 (2023 version) and it's been working great. Just a heads up though, steer clear of the 2025 RMe version because some users have reported a weird click sound from it that Corsair acknowledged. It's not dangerous, just a bit annoying.
Yeah, I think that clicking sound happens when the fan switches from off to on. It can be a little jarring!
