I'm looking to buy a power supply unit (PSU), and I've found the A850GL 80 Plus Gold MSI MAG PCIE5 available in my country at a good price. Is this a solid option for my build?

I’d say it's B tier, but still good enough. It really depends on your PC specs though. If you’re running something like a 5060 Ti, you probably don’t need the full 850W; a 650W would handle that just fine. Just make sure to check your other components if you plan to upgrade in the future!
It's a decent PSU overall. It performs well in most situations, but I've heard that it can be a bit underwhelming in certain aspects, especially the quality of the fan. Just keep that in mind when deciding.
I'm running a 4070 S with an i5 14400F, so I guess 850W might be more than I need?
