Thinking about grabbing the 650w gold one in the top link. Is this PSU any good? You think it would be good enough to run a 1950x at stock with a single Vega 64 GPU and 64gb of DDR4 3200?? Or am I going to need a higher wattage PSU?

It's a good unit, but that CPU and GPU, I'd personally go with a 750w +.

In this review, Anandtech put the system power consumption at 460w, but that was with a 140w TDP Intel CPU. Your Threadripper is a 180w TDP processor.

You still would not exceed the capacity, but you also would be running it higher than its peak efficiency rating (40% - 70%).
