Will My 750W PSU Support an RX 9070XT Upgrade?
Asked by

I'm currently using a Ryzen 7 5700X3D and a RX 6700XT, and I'm looking to upgrade my GPU to an RX 9070XT. I'm hoping to stick with my existing 750W PSU, but I'm not sure if that's enough power. I've read that the Asrock, Powercolor, and Sapphire versions of the 9070XT recommend a minimum of 750W, so I think it should be okay, but I'd love some feedback from others who might have experience with this setup!

It's important to consider the quality of the PSU as well. Not all 750W PSUs are created equal. Assuming yours is a good quality one, 750W should work just fine.

A friend is using a 750W PSU with a 9070XT and an 11700KF CPU, which uses more power than your setup. As for calculators, if you're uncertain, there are online tools like Newegg's power supply calculator that can help you figure this out.

For regular usage, 750W is sufficient unless you have additional components that consume a lot of power. Just keep in mind, if you're planning to overclock, that could change things.

Yes, a 750W PSU should definitely be adequate for your setup without any issues.

I’ve got a similar setup with a 5700X and a 9070XT running on a 650W PSU, and it's working well. The 5700X3D shouldn't draw significantly more power than the 5700X, so you should be fine.
