Need help choosing PSU

Hello, this is my first time posting in this forum and I apologize for asking in PSU Tier List thread 🤦‍♂️


My current builds are

- Ryzen 7 5800x OC with PBO

- Radeon RX 6800 XT stock

- DDR4 Corsair Dominator 2x8GB 3200Mhz CL15 XMP 1.0

- 1TB SSD (2x)

- 1TB HDD (1x)

- Case Fan (3x)

- AIO Cooler Corsair H110i

My current PSU is Corsair RM650 and I'm a bit worried when I monitor my GPU watt spiking to 300W+ while playing TW Three Kingdoms

 

I'm planning to squeeze a bit of performance from my RX 6800 XT and upgrade my RAM to 32GB then OC it

Currently I'm interested in these three PSUs

- Corsair HX750

- Corsair HX850

- Enermax Maxtytan 800W

 

Which one has better components and more performance per dollar?

Thank you

Your 650w psu should do fine. Test how much yor system, uses. Use aida to fully stress the system (not drives and ram sicne it will slow down too much) and see power usage form HwInfo + add around 50w for drives and ram. 

 

upgrading to 750w would not make any sense. ghet the hx850 (white label). That is all around decent psu.

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.
