Can a Corsair HX750 handle a 3090?

I have a Corsair HX750 Platinum in a system I will be dropping a 3090 into later this week.

 

I am aware many PSUs are having their OCP tripped by 3080s and 3090s due to transient power draw spikes. I do plan to upgrade to a HX1200 in the future, but I'm kinda putting it off.

 

Is the HX750 a good enough PSU to deal with the spikes a 3090 causes or will I need to do that upgrade to the HX1200?

Found this article about it. I also believe NVIDIA gives power supply recommendations for their cards. Link here(https://www.tomshardware.com/news/nvidias-rtx-3000-power-supply-requirements-PSU-shortage-2020). Also if you buying from lets say a Asus STRIX go look on Asus website at the card you are getting a PSU recomendation. So I am looking at the ROG-STRIX-RTX3090 and it recommends 750 PSU here is the website https://rog.asus.com/us/graphics-cards/graphics-cards/rog-strix/rog-strix-rtx3090-o24g-white-model/spec/ if you scroll down you will see it.
