is an 450W enough to run a RTX3060?

[a_00]

hello! need some help

im upgrading from an gtx1650 to a rtx3060 non TI, i have a gigabyte 80 plus bronze 450w PSU

specs:

CPU: I3-10105F(with the stock fan cooler)

RAM: XPG 16GB X2

Storage: Consistent 512 GB NVMe, one seagate 2TB hdd, one CRUCIAL 256gb SATA SSD

4x fans, 3 of them are ARGB and one of them non RGB

ill be upgrading to a 600w PSU soon but cant right now, if i can run the 3060 on my current psu for a week without any big problems

The 3060's suggested PSU is 450W. The card is rated for just 170W. Especially given that you've only got a 10105F, you should have plenty of headroom.

Is that the P450B? That is D Tier ideal for iGPU only. It should work for now, but be eying a MSI MAG 650 in the near future if you're in the market for a budget king
