I'm building a PC and I need some advice on my power supply. Here are my specs: I'm using an AMD Ryzen 7 9800 X3D CPU, an RTX 4070 GPU, 32GB of DDR5 5200MHz memory, a 2TB NVMe M.2 SSD, another 2TB SSD, a B650 motherboard, and an NZXT Kraken 240 RGB Black cooler. I'm planning on using a 650W ATX Gold power supply, but I'm unsure if it's sufficient for this setup. What do you think?

It really depends on the model of your power supply. 650W should technically be enough for your setup, but it's a tight squeeze. If it's a reliable brand like Seasonic, you should be fine, though! Just make sure it has good reviews and check if it's a higher tier model. You're leaving limited room for future upgrades, though.
Exactly! The PSU model matters a lot. If you're using a cheap brand, that could be an issue. If you've already got the PSU, as long as it's not a garbage unit, you should be okay.
