Hey there, newbie! I'm checking if your current setup can handle the switch from RX 6700 XT to 9070 XT. You're using a Ryzen 7 5800X3D and a 650W PSU with 80+Gold rating. Is that enough for the upgrade?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
My PSU (Thermaltake 650w 80+gold) is the brand of the PSU, and 650W is the claimed power output. The 80+ Gold rating indicates the efficiency level. I'm checking the model and its age.
I'm planning to upgrade my GPU to the 9070xt.
The Sapphire Nitro + will have the 16pin connector, so you'll need to replace your PSU. Which one are you considering?

When getting a new high performance graphics card, it's recommended to use a power supply with at least 1000 Watts or more for additional capacity. Just a note. Cheers.

It's a Toughpower GF1 premium from 2021, and I've been using it since then. For your next query, I'm focusing on all brands.

Thank you for the suggestion, but it received a B rating on the list, and I was discussing GPU makers for the upcoming 9070xt.

Additionally, I conducted some research and focused mainly on power color and ASUS cards.
