Hello everyone, here’s my current configuration and what I’m considering upgrading to. Will my existing EVGA 650 GQ Gold+ PSU be enough? I’ll also need a new CPU fan for the 5800x3d. I play at 1440p and don’t do overclocking. This rig isn’t meant for productivity, so I’m thinking about starting a fresh AM5 build if needed. Any suggestions?

Without increasing the clock speed or making extreme changes, the existing power supply should work well even after upgrading the GPU to Asus RTX4070. However, a 750W power supply would be ideal.
