You have an 850W Bronze PSU and just got a 14900K, are you sure it's sufficient? I'm not very familiar with PSU specifications. You mentioned planning to run a 14900K and a 3080 GPU.

Yes, "Bronze" simply indicates a lack of notable performance, offering no deeper insight into the standard.

This specific model is a budget hec-made PSU, but it won't handle the 3080/3090 with their big transient spikes. An A tier PSU would be more suitable, though a 3060 might still work for less demanding needs.

That would be a much better option and appropriate for the hardware.
