Will a 500w power supply suffice for an RTX 4060 Ti with a Ryzen 5 5600?

Oh, I get it. CUDA stuff does sound intriguing. These PSU choices are solid, just like triplex1 mentioned. For the GPU, any of the options should work fine—just pick what looks good to you. Since they’re practically identical, my personal pick is MSI or Gygabyte. But ultimately, it’s up to your budget and preference. If you run into problems, a warranty can really help solve your issues!
No worries, friend, and have fun. Keep us informed, and this weekend I'll attempt to answer your queries.
Hey everyone. Apologies for the delayed update. I've been occupied this week but managed to secure all the components. For the GPU, I purchased the Gigabyte GeForce RTX™ 3060 GAMING OC 12G (rev. 2.0). Since the Zotac model wasn't in stock, I opted for this one. It almost didn’t fit in my case, but fortunately my case can hold 310mm long GPUs—though there’s only a quarter of an inch remaining. From what I see, it isn’t sagging or tilted, which is a plus. I’ve read that RTX 3060s don’t sag, though I’m not sure. This is my first experience installing a long GPU. Regarding the PSU, I’m a bit puzzled. I received a Seasonic GX-850 with a "Safety Model Name" of SSR-850FX. Are these two interchangeable? Currently, I’m running stress tests on both CPU and GPU to verify performance. So far, it’s handling around 350–360W as measured by my wattmeter.
I also tested the previous PSU during a stress test with my old GPU. The readings were within acceptable ranges: 11.994V for 12V, 3.34V for 3.3V, and 5.07V for 5V—all within safe limits.
