Can't find online calculator that includes 5070 ti so going to ask here.
Planning to pair 5070 ti with 9950x (possible light overclock).
For cooling I'm using Arctic liquid freezer III so that's 3 fans and a pump inside a case with 4 more fans.
Standard 2 stick ram and an m.2 drive.
Would 850W power supply be enough? There is currently one on sale (Gigabyte Aorus P850W (GP-AP850GM))

There is presently an item on sale (Gigabyte Aorus P850W (GP-AP850GM)). Consider a more durable power supply. For wattage, opt for a stable 850W or above PSU suitable for your entire setup.
Tell me about your location, budget, and where you'd like to buy.

Avoid purchasing a gigabyte PSU. Given the recent failures with blown PSUs, I wouldn't rely on them again. I believe an 850W unit should suffice, provided it's of good quality.
