Reliable, cheap PSU for a 3060ti?

Venous
Go to solution Solved by Stahlmann,

The cheapest 650W PSU i found on PCPP that's still good enough to recommend: Corsair TXM Gold 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply (CP-9020132-NA) - PCPartPicker

 

Will have no problem running your build.

Cheap is anything below £80 as that seems to be about the average, asus b450-f r5 3600, asus 3060ti oc (will be)

Seems like the right fit for your budget.

I'm in the UK if it helps, need a new PSU for an incoming 3060ti, think 650w should do it, but I could be wrong so please correct me!

 

Thanks in advance.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

Those are not cheap, but rather high-end when it comes to 650W PSUs.

These would be your best bet under 80 quid:

Or if you want something better (mainly in the noise department), for slightly more:
