Will 850w be enough for 6900xt and i7-13700k or will I need a 1000w unit?

it should be fine (even without any undervolting) but since an 850w is only a bit more expensive I would just get an 850w聽

But yes it could work even without undervolting at 750w

750W would be enough but make sure that solid units are picked and make sure that your model or even individual SKU unit can handle the transient load of the 6900XT. But yeah the peak is around 680-720W as far as i see on the internet, some stock some overclocked.

Head to聽PC Part Picker聽and put all your components in. It'll recommend you a wattage.

I try to be respectful. If I ever come off in a different manner, I probably don't mean to. If I don't help you sorry, if I do, mark my comment as the solution.聽
