The minimum requirement is   750 watt psu but as you have  core i9 cpu you might wanna go higher. 850 watts should be good but under heavy loads sometimes it may not be enough. You may want to buy a 900w or a 1000w. The 850 is a sweet spot but if you plan to upgrade or overclock in the future you may want more.

If my answer is correct or is helpful please mark it as the solution. Quote me in your post to summon me. Beware that after summoning me ill never leave.

decent 850w unit. it has high power spikes so under 850w wont really vut it, you also have cpu that uses a high amount of power

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.
