I'm looking to add a new GPU to my setup, and I'm planning to use an M2 adapter with a B580 motherboard. My budget is around 300€ for a new PSU, but I'm not very knowledgeable about power supplies. What would be a good option for me? I'm not too concerned with power efficiency; I just want something reliable that can handle this setup well.

Just a heads up, power supplies can be hard to come by these days, so make sure yours doesn't come with a bottle of shampoo!
Check out this link for great PSU options: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1akCHL7Vhzk_EhrpIGkz8zTEvYfLDcaSpZRB6Xt6JWkc/edit?usp=drivesdk. A C rated PSU should be your minimum. The SAMA GT is a budget-friendly choice, and if you can stretch your budget a bit, the 650W XPG Core Reactor II is also a solid option.
Those are solid recommendations! Just a note, though—some PSU tier lists don’t take into account the newer ATX 3.0 standards properly. If you’re looking for something that can handle the peaks, make sure to buy a PSU that can deal with a lot more wattage than what your setup normally uses.
Why do you want to add a GPU anyway? Just curious!
The integrated GPU isn’t cutting it for me, and my case is small, so I'd rather not mess around trying to make it fit.
Ha, yeah, my autocorrect really messes up my English sometimes!
