Will my 500w PSU handle the new RTX 3060?

My PSU is this: https://www.newegg.com/seasonic-s12iii-bronze-series-ssr-500gb3-500w/p/N82E16817151226?Description=seasonic 500w&cm_re=seasonic_500w-_-17-151-226-_-Product&quicklink=true

 

I am currently using it with a Palit GTX 1070 JetStream that is not mine and I want to upgrade to an RTX 3060.

Will my PSU be enough? I have a Ryzen 5 3600 w/ an AsRock B450m pro4.

It should be OK, the TDP of the new 3060 is 170w, the 1070 are 150w
