MSI B450 gaming ac mobo
1 x m.2
1 x SSD
2 x 8g ddr4 ram
1050ti GC
Im planning to upgrade my graphic card to RTX 2060 super, went thru a few PSU calculator, it seems like 450w is adequate. What you guys think?

I postponed my GC upgrade until now as the price was crazy back then. Now im thinking about RTX3060 or 3060ti. Im wondering, is my PSU sufficient to power up a 3060ti? Or i shouldnt stress the PSU too much and live with a 3060?

Wattage wise it's fine, but the problem is it's a FSP made, group regulated unit which is unsuitable for modern PCs:

Might be best to swap this to a modern DC-DC PSU, like a Corsair SF450 or the SF600 icon_idea.gif
