Need help

Ok so i have a GeForce GTX 1660 Super and AMD Ryzen 5 3600 with a 80+ Bronze 600W and a B450 TOMAHAWK MAX II

I'm planning to upgrade to a 3060 but I'm worried that it might not work out the best power wise. My gpu is overclocked is also overclocked meaning more power usage so im not sure and if i do have to upgrade what would i have to upgrade too?

30 series reccomended power supplies

 

3060: 500w

3060 ti: 600w

3070: 650w

3080:750w

3090:750w

A 3060 is totally fine for a 600w psu and even some room for overclocking

Power draw, it will work. 

 

But the quality of the unit also matters. 80+ Bronze is not the highest rating (which is fine) but what is the unit?

Ehhhhhhh....

 

I had that PSU for a few months. Its..... fine.

 

I would not put anything above the 3060 in there. And I would not recommend an overclock. 

 

BUT it will work with a 3060

As a PSU upgrade, look at this: PSU tier list and anything in the A tier with at least 650W.
