How Much Power Do I Need for a 5070Ti?
Asked by

I'm looking for advice on what wattage PSU to use with my 5070Ti graphics card. Right now, I've got a 1000W PSU, but I'm questioning if that will be sufficient given my full specs:
- CPU: i5-13600K
- CPU cooler: Corsair Titan X 240 (with 4 extra case fans and 2 for the radiator)
- Motherboard: TUF Gaming Z690 Plus
- RAM: Corsair Vengeance 32 GB (2x16GB) 6000 DDR5
- Storage: 1st SSD: 860 Evo (for OS), 2nd SSD: 970 EVO Plus, and an HDD: WD Blue 3TB, 5400 RPM
- PSU: EVGA SuperNova 1000 G+ 80+ Gold.
Is my current PSU enough, or should I consider something different?

I've got an 850W PSU, and it's been running smoothly without any issues. If you’re already using a 1000W, you should be perfectly fine!

An 850W gold-rated PSU is plenty, but your 1000W unit sounds more than sufficient for your setup. Many people usually recommend a quality PSU of at least 750W for that GPU, so you're in good shape!

No worries about having 1000W; it's definitely more than enough for high-end setups like yours. Most setups with the 5070Ti generally run great on 750W or higher. You're all set!
