edit • Hi, I'm by no way an expert, but I have hands-on experience with building systems and selecting power supplies. My video shows power consumption figures and these are not necessarily the power draw numbers. They are not exclusively 1:1, but that said, they are not wide apart. My advice is generally to add 15-20% onto your system power draw to allow for system growth and to nullify system power spikes. • Tip: Find the TDP of your current card and if it's 220w or less then your PSU will be fine. • In the case of the 3070, people have reported that a 500w 80+ bronze unit has proven to work well with a 3600 3070 @ stock. Now this is fine if it's what you have, but I would suggest going for a 550w+ gold unit if you're buying new. All the better to go 650w+ if you can. I know that PSUs are expensive at the moment but so are your CPU and GPU. • Good luck with your building and hopefully you get a card at MSRP :) • Wayne • Further to this, check out a previous video I did about selecting PSUs • PSUs, how to choose one a look at E... • ---------------------- • Hi there, • Nvidia suggest that a 650w PSU is required, but may work with a lower wattage unit. What is the reality? • We test two systems 1) a Ryzen 5 3600 2) a Ryzen 9 3900X for power consumption. • If using a 500w 80+ bronze unit you may run into issues with spikes, but I think a 550w 80+ gold good quality unit and above should be fine. • Check out the below calculators if you're unsure. • Links to PSU Calculator websites: • https://www.evga.com/power-meter/ • https://www.newegg.com/tools/power-su... • Remember that PC parts are expensive so look after them with a good quality PSU and not a random no name brand. • Intro music: Song: Jim Yosef - Firefly • Music provided by NCS Music. • NCS YouTube Channel: / @nocopyrightsounds • Jim Yosef: / jimboows
