PSU advice please

Hi,

I've used the calculation and it's coming out at 650w but I've seen some reviews of the 3090 gaming trio X and it pulls just over 600w!

My new card is due next week and my current spec is

3900xt
2080ti
Super flower 650w
Aio cooler
4 fans

So my question is do I go 850w or 1000w

Thanks

850W. It should be more efficient than the equivalent 80+ bronze/silver/gold/platinum/titanium 1000W at 600W load.

Thanks. I've gone for another super flower since that's what I've already got in 650w.

Have to agree with this. 1000watts is too much.

Cool,

850w arriving tomorrow.
