Hey everyone, I'm thinking about swapping my GPU and wondering if I can stick with the XFX XT 500W without buying a new PSU. I'm planning to install either an RTX 3060 Ti or RTX 3070. Since I'm on a budget, I could either upgrade the GPU or the power supply, but not both at once. Would it be better to get a 850W PSU now so I have room for future upgrades? Maybe save some money and sell my old GTX 1060 to fund the new one?
Sorry, my English isn't great—it's not my first language.
