Upgrading GPU, PSU help

[natarle]

At the moment I have a Asus 2070 turbo and I want to upgrade to a 9070 none XT, I see that they suggest a minimum of 650 watt power supply on AMD website and I have a 600 watt Corsair SF600

 

On PCpartpick my current build uses 456 watt and changing the GPU  to a 9070 would increase it to 491 watts, a 35 watt differences. 

 

Do I really need to change power supply for that 50watts under minimum recommendation?

 

Thank you for any suggestions

No you do not need to change the power supply.

The SF600 is a decent unit and plenty enough for a 9070 non XT.

The 491w is basically your entire system at 100% load, this never happens during gaming for example.

And even if it did, you have 110w of power left All good.

 

What CPU do you have? Just want to make sure

Oh then the SF600 is plenty of power   Its a great and reliable unit too.

You can install the 9070 and game away without any worries at all.

 

Enjoy! 

 

500w by PcPartPicker is pretty wild.  You will probably be around 400-450w full system power during heavy gaming.

But again, they are estimating absolute max power draw.
