Unless you return the entire machine with BIOS in an overclocked condition, it becomes impossible to confirm any part was overclocked.
If you push excessive voltages and expose components to high temperatures, there’s little chance they’ll be affected by overclocking; most have built-in protections that can reduce speed or stop operation if overheating occurs, providing clear alerts if this happens.
Regarding the power supply, increasing power demands only slightly—well under a 25% buffer—means the rated PSU should comfortably handle the system’s needs. What matters most is the PSU’s reliability and stability.

Estimated for your PC is about 350W, so it seems you're safe to proceed.

It's okay for a moderate overclock, but be cautious. For lasting improvements, opt for the 650w in the long run.

Does the warranty expire if I overclock Ryzen processors or my RAM?

I'm absolutely certain it works when you check RAM, though I don't know about CPUs.

Yes, good PSU. The full modular design is somewhat of a trick to simplify obtaining custom cables for the 24-pin connection.
