I found a fantastic deal on a 9070XT and I'm tempted to buy it. However, I only have a 650W power supply that ranks as S tier on the power supply tier list. I'm curious whether this setup will work. Any insights? Thanks a lot!

It really depends on your entire setup. I recommend checking pcpartpicker.com for estimated wattage under load. Just keep in mind that it's unlikely your system will hit max usage while gaming, especially on the CPU side. But overall, it sounds manageable!
You should be okay! The 9070XT draws about 300W. If you're worried, you could limit the power by about 5%. Unless you have a lot of hard drives running while gaming, you’ll probably be just fine.
I have a 12400F, 16GB DDR4 RAM, and two 512GB M.2 SSDs. I checked pcpartpicker, and it said I'm good to go, but I just wanted some additional advice.
