No, you don't necessarily have to purchase a new PSU unless there are signs of wear or failure.

Hello, you're thinking about purchasing a new GPU like the RTX 3080 or possibly the 6900X. I noticed it needs three 8-pin connectors, but your PSU only has one 6+2 pin and an 8-pin slot for the CPU. The EVGA W1 700W 80 Plus white is also in mind. Manufacturers aren't clear on how to power it safely with your current setup. You might need a different PSU or a new one to handle the requirements.
Both cards need at least 850 watts or more. If you don’t get a really powerful 750-watt model, it’s pretty close to what you need.
That power supply is in the "Throw in Trash Right Now" category. Grab a 1000G6!
