Question PSU reecommendation for new graphics card

[Azmain Iqtidar]

I am going to buy an rtx 3060ti gpu. I currently running my system with a 550-watt power supply. Will it be enough to handle the rtx 3060ti card or should I also buy a new PSU?

Which 550W PSU do you have? What are your complete system specs?

While that PSU is not the worst, it is still a low-end unit that is short of the recommended wattage for a 3060 Ti. It is recommended that you upgrade to a PSU that is sufficient for your needs. Ask before buying though. No sense in buying a cheap PSU that is worse quality than the one you have.
