Help RTX 3060 TI OC and i5 8400 cpu is my psu powerful enough

[PhilipR]

I bought and Asus dual RTX 3060 TI OC but im not sure if my psu is powerful enough

I have a coolermaster masterwatt lite 700w. my cpu is a intel  i5 8400.

 

[--SID--]

Although 700w is more than enough, MasterWatt Lite is a terrible PSU. Even for a groupregulated unit it has a very bad voltage regulation. Replace it for a Tier A or B unit. https://linustechtips.com/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list/

I have my doubts, a decent idea is to take the power draw according to pcpartpicker and double that

700w is more than plenty for that setup, the quality of the PSU is what to focus on here as stated by SID.  There were some really good sales for 750w units last week but they appear to all be dead now.  This is the best I could find for an A tier unit https://www.amazon.com/MSI-MPG-Power-Supply-PSU/dp/B08PDZ5ZLT

Here is another https://www.newegg.com/evga-supernova-750-g6-220-g6-0750-x1-750w/p/N82E16817438213?Item=N82E16817438213

The MSI is multi rail and is CWT made, the EVGA is Seasonic single rail.  Both A tier 10 year warranty units.

 

Found another deal, maybe the best one yet. https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Supernova-Modular-Warranty-220-G5-0750-X1/dp/B08FCQZPMG

It's FSP made, also A tier and 10 year warranty

Could you explain to me how an entry level PSU for $83 is a good deal? ACRF, just like FSP's other entry level PSUs. And how in the world did you manage to screw up reading the PSU tier list? Instead of going hErE's TiEr A pSu'S, you could actually read reviews...?

Sorry late edit, assumed G5 was also A, it's B apparently

Thank you for finding good deals for me but i live in denmark and if i should order from usa it would take weeks and it would be cheaper to buy full price. 

but i found the CORSAIR RMx Series RM750x to a good price in my country but i wanted to know if its any good

The RMx is a very good PSU so you shouldn't worry too much with that one
