CPU - R3600x
MOBO - MSI B450M

That isn't exactly a power hungry rig, so typically a 450W PSU or really any budget PSU will work fine. Consider XPG Pylon 550w in the budget range, or the Asus TUF Gaming 550w Bronze. Other recommendations will be NZXT C550 or the Deepcool PM650D (let this be your last preference, in case nothing is available).

IMO Deepcool PM650D should suffice

Many people do buy 2nd PSU or such components when required. IF it happened to me, I would.

For 5k, buy Deepcool PM650D then resell the RMA'd CX550. You will get some headroom for future upgrades, should be fine with 6700XT or 3060Ti class GPUs.

OLX & fb groups are one way, easier in tier 1 cities. Techenclave forum is another place.

Here. In this forum or in Digit forum.
If locally means olx.

Deepcool PM650D isn't worth it for its price. It's quality is worse than other PSUs at the same price. NZXT C550, XPG Pylon 550w or Asus TUF Gaming Bronze are better options

Any of the 3 I mentioned. Not saying that the PM650D is a bad PSU, it just doesnt have credibility.

Get Adata XPG Pylon 550w for 3200 from here. It comes with 5 years warranty also. Also, I hope you are using UPS with your pc.

CORSAIR is giving me 50% money back & refuse to give warranty treatment

Man this gives me no hopes on getting a replacement for my recently dead CX550M bought this July from MDComputers. I should be hunting for a replacement soon and my next PSU will definitely NOT be Corsair. (I had a previous CX450 give me enough trouble for 2+ years while being semifunctional.)
