TDP- PSU- GPU

[PeachGr]

Well I wanna buy a 3080 when it will be available in my country.the thing is that I use a ryzen 7 3800x (105w), and the Nvidia 3080 (320w) and a PSU from Corsair on 650w. So the maximum tdp will be 425 + some more from other hardware. 

On the other hand, Nvidia requires a 750w PSU. Will I have a problem if I just put the new GPU on my current build?

I'm sure you'll be fine with 650W, though at this point just wait a couple more days for reviews on the 3080 to see its actual power draw. 

TDP != power consumption

 

Also, what PSU is it?

Wait for ampere to actually launch and check the power consumption for these cards first. but 650w should be fine. 

but what 650w unit?

Well a Corsair 650w gold PSU I can't remember the full name. Of course I will wait for reviews. Not that I can buy it right now anyway. My full pc specs are on my profile, I don't know how to have them under my posts

Unless it's a bottom of the barrel PSU which you don't want to run at high load constantly, 650w will be more than enough for a 3800 and 3080.  Also TDP isn't a 1 to 1 to power consumption.  Wait for reviews and see what actual power draw is.

Food for thought, I will check when I get home

(11 hours later) Well it's a tx-m, tx650m but what does that stands for?

It's just it's name, it's a decent psu, wait for reviews and check the 3080's power consumption but for the most part it should be fine.

The TX line from Corsair is one level better than the budget CX line. But one level below the RM line. In general, if you want to pick Corsair PSU for mid to high end gaming build. I'd suggest go for the RM. But your TX650m should be fine too.

Yeah I saw an old techquicky about that

It's funny that I don't Google for tech explanation anymore but I search on tech quicky, Linus may have made a good about every question ever. It's not the first time I don't out an old video
