That power supply is not going to handle that setup.

You will not pull 80 fps all the time in WvW zergs regardless of machine due to engine limitations though that computer should do mostly fine.

What exactly would take that much power? The graphics card is pretty low power.

Component Estimated Wattage
AMD – Ryzen 3 1200 3.1GHz Quad-Core Processor 8W – 65W
MSI – B350 TOMAHAWK ATX AM4 Motherboard 17W – 70W
G.Skill – Ripjaws V Series 8GB (2 × 4GB) DDR4-2666 Memory 5W – 5W
Western Digital – Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive 4W – 20W
SanDisk – Ultra II 240GB 2.5" Solid State Drive 2W – 10W
Gigabyte – GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Video Card 18W – 75W
Total: 54W – 245W
Though regardless, I’d aim for a more reputable brand of power supply like Seasonic. Check out:

Also, to save some extra money, could consider the RX 560 for graphics card https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125998&ignorebbr=1&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Video+Cards+-+AMD%2FATI-_-N82E16814125998&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIh6v9s-Ln1QIVD5l-Ch0MXgBcEAQYAiABEgL0G_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Power supplies don’t work like that, the power they list is not the power they deliver. Given an 80+ power supply, you’ll only get 80% of the wattage that it advertises and running it at max like that all of the time will make it noisy (fan and coil noise), inefficient and and burn out quickly.
Efficiency drops as its loaded down and most aren’t designed to be flatlined.
That wattage usually also describes the combination of all rails, while most of the system relies solely on the +12V rail (the CPU, GPU, etc.). This means if the PSU doesn’t have powerful enough rails it will supply insufficient power
Some 500W PSUs provide as little as 200-300W to the 12V rail(s).
Always use a calculator, unless you want the power supply to burn out and take your entire system with it from being pushed too hard.

Power calculators tend to vastly overestimate the power use, and even considering that, pcpartpicker is predicting a 250w peak load. You don’t need more than a quality 500w power supply for this.

That’s not how the 80 plus rating works. Sure, a knock off brand without any ethics may try pass off a lesser wattage PSU for a greater one, but a 80 plus rated PSU should output the stated wattage. That the % means is how much additional power is wasted as heat. E.g. a low efficiency 500w may waste 150w as heat, thus consuming a total of 650w, where as a high efficiency one may waste 50w as heat. But both should output 500w.
Efficiency changes depending on the PSU’s load. The 80 plus rating measures it at 20, 50 and 100%.
