Power Requirement for new PC

Andy Yu

I currently have one EVGA Supernova 850 P2 that I bought back in 2018, and I'm currently considering to reuse this part for my new build

 

 For CPU I am going for i7 11700KF and for GPU I'm going for RTX 3080 Strix OC, since these two consume a lot of power, I was wondering if my power supply can handle the spike.

 

Thank you

I'd imagine it's fine. We aren't exactly sure what power draw will look like for the 11th gen chips, but as long as you are okay with the fact that you won't be beating some exotic overclockers in brazil somewhere, you should be fine.

I would go for the 10700KF, it is much cheaper and the performance will do just fine.
