Question PSU replacement

[HarryGRGamer]

Basically my PC froze yesterday on the log in page. After resetting the white light on my MSI motherboard turned on indicating the VGA. I first thought my pcie slot was broken so I tried my 970 I had hanging around and it worked

Then I thought my GPU died however it worked on my friend's PC so it wasn't the GPU either

I'm 99% sure it's the PSU, it's a C tier gigabyteP650B I've had it since 2020, it works with my 970 for now. I came across two PSUs around the 100 euro mark

Seasonic GM g12 750w
Corsair RM750e

I'm almost certain the seasonic is b tier and the Corsair a tier, is there any significant difference between the two other than the one is semi modular and the other full modular

This will also be a step for a GPU upgrade in the future (rtx4080)

Note: with hwinfo I found out that my CPU is exceeding power limits during heavy load however that could just be my Motherboard I'm not sure if that's a PSU problem as well but alas

Specs:
I7-10700f
RX6700XT
32GB ram
MSI B460 PRO

Use the calculators to size a PSU.

Wattage is important but put the emphasis on quality.

And budget for a higher cost.

Corsair RMe Series RM850e 850 watts if you add a later 4080 card

Both of those are budget tier 80+ Gold from their respective companies and B tier. Overall I would go with the Corsair as there are more reviews of it. That said for 100 Euros you might be able to get this PSU which is better than either of them.
