So I'm looking forward for a new pc and this is what my wish list is
i5 8400
RX 580 8GB
MSI Z370-A Pro
I would like to overclock RX 580 8GB but can EVGA BQ 500W handle it or do I have to step up the PSU?
This PSU has just the perfect price for me so can my PSU atleast handle these components? And if so can I overclock the gpu?
Thanks.

Check if Corsair TX550M 550W supports overclocking. Also, compare the Corsair RM550X 550W with the TX550M 550W to see which is superior.
