Hiya. Your setup with the I3-12100F, GTX 1650 Super, RTX 3060 WINDFORCE OC, and CPU seems to be under a lot of strain. You're worried about overheating or failure—definitely worth checking your power supply capacity.

Wattage-wise 750W is sufficient. The more important thing is identifying the make and model of that PSU.

It appears to be a 700w model from Novatech Power Station V2 Black Edition.

There are no online reviews available for that PSU, and documentation is also unavailable. Based on the limited information I have, it comes with a two-year warranty, which suggests it may be of lower quality. I wouldn't recommend using it with an RTX3060. A picture I found shows a 750 black edition model with a total power rating for four 12V rails reaching up to 650W. This indicates it's likely not a 750W PSU but rather a 650W one, as most of the current is drawn from the 12V rails. The significant difference between the 12V rail and maximum output often points to an older platform. In general, I would consider replacing it with a new PSU for the RTX3060.

Which PSU do you suggest? My setup is a Micro ATX and I'm trying to stay within my budget.

I don't have a specific budget for a PSU and GPU, and I'm not aware of your location. Could you clarify your requirements?

£400 and I'm based in the UK. I've been considering this GPU for some time.
