Hi there,
Below is the build that I currently have with the Corsair RMx 850W. I'm looking to upgrade to either a 3080 or 3090, but I was informed that the 3090 had power spikes that the 850W couldn't handle. So instead of that, I was looking to upgrade to a 3080 instead. There doesn't seem to be much space in the case for a bigger PSU, and I'd prefer not to replace that right now if I don't need to.
Will the 850W be able to handle the all of the 3080 cards, or will certain ones still be too much despite the 750W recommendation? The retailers I'm looking at has the MSI Suprim, ASUS ROG Strix, Gigabyte Aorus Extreme / Vision / Gaming OC, and EVGA FTW3 Ultra in stock, but I wasn't sure if all of these will have too much power draw and I'd need to stick to the 2 x 8-pin cards.
