Hey everyone! I'm planning to buy an RTX 5070 Ti graphics card soon, but I've run into a snag with my current power supply, an EVGA 750 N1 (750W). It doesn't have the right cables for the new GPU. Can anyone suggest a compatible power supply for around $100?

You might want to check out the Vetroo VT850. Just a heads up, replacing your current power supply is a good idea since the EVGA N1 has a bit of a sketchy reputation. It's known to be unreliable!
Another solid option is the Corsair RM850x. It's a reliable choice!
Look for an A+ rated power supply from the SPL tier list! I have the same GPU and I went with the NZXT 850W. It's over $100, but you want something high quality for such an expensive card.
The Vetroo does seem good, but also make sure to check a PSU tier list before you make a decision.
Just make sure to look up the wattage requirements for your setup online (plenty of tools on Google, Newegg, and PCPartPicker). Corsair RMx PSUs are pretty trustworthy, but avoid the new RMe series unless you’re okay with a shorter warranty. The RMx is worth the extra cash for better reliability!
Yeah, I’ve read that their PSUs haven't built a solid reputation yet, and the 12V rail might have some issues.
