ik lol just messin around,  but there have been stories....

A c tier psu won’t explode, but there’s a small chance it’ll fail. As you go to D tier the failure chance grows and at F tier is when you get the fires. Generally, the problem is the ability to handle spikes and the ability to reliably input energy. Don’t try to fear monger bruv, it won’t catch fire unless you’re buying a 30 year old 5$ psu from temu

Try get onto AM5 if you can - very achievable and will give the better upgrade path - 7600 will be better for video editing than a 5700X too.

For example:

Work out how much performance you need from the GPU based on the resolution and target framerate: https://www.kitguru.net/gaming/dominic-moass/halo-infinite-pc-performance-benchmark-25-gpus-tested/

 

(or maybe look for a newer review as this one is  2 years old?)

 

From this I think the RX6700XT is the price-performance sweet-spot for Halo Infinite.... maybe get one of those 2nd hand?
