Hey everyone! I'm planning to upgrade my graphics card from an RTX 3060 12GB to an RTX 5070 Ti. My current setup includes an i5 12400f, an AORUS B660M Pro DDR4 motherboard, and 32GB of Kingston DDR4 3600MHz RAM. I'm using a Redragon GC600W 80 Plus Bronze power supply. My main concern is whether I need to upgrade the PSU as well. Any advice?

Yes, you definitely need to upgrade your PSU if you're going for the 5070 Ti.

Yeah, you should definitely look into upgrading your PSU. The RTX 5070 Ti has a minimum recommended power supply rating of 750W, so your current 600W is not going to cut it.

Thank you for the heads up!

Absolutely! Upgrading the PSU is a must for that GPU. Also, it helps to consider what resolution you’re gaming at; that can affect power needs too.

Thanks! I’m playing at 1080p right now but planning to switch to 1440p soon.
