You'll need a power supply with an additional EPS 8 pin to support the Ryzen 5 5600X. Your current Coolermaster unit only has one, so you'll likely need a new PSU or an upgrade to accommodate the extra pin.

I’d replace the PSU since the Masterwatt Lite isn’t reliable, not because you require more than one 8-pin EPS. The additional 4-pin is unnecessary on AM4, especially with a 16-core processor and ambient cooling.

My motherboard features 8 plus 4 pins, and I only used the 8-pin connection, which functions perfectly even at 5.2 GHz overclocking!
