I currently use a Corsair VS450 PSU

I am upgrading my system very soon to:
AMD Ryzen 5 1500X
ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS MoBo
16GB RAM
(pretty much stuck on these)

While I will continue to use my:
Zotac GT730 2GB DDR5 Graphic card
2 TB WD HDD
24" LED Samsung monitor/keyboard/mouse
(Won't be using the DVD Writer any more)

So, my question is, is the Corsair VS450 PSU enough or do I need to upgrade?

Thank you

Immediately you need to change your PSU as that Corsair VS Series PSUs are of inferior quality.

Change to
Antec VP550P @ 4k
