So currently,in my country, the 3700X costs about 260 Euros and the 3800X costs 290...If they drop to 160-200,like the 2700X did, then i'll be able to upgrade,but first i need to ask a few things.
I currently use a RM650x from Corsair ( it's new,i'm using it for about 6 months), a TUF X570 and a 2070S.
Total power consumption during load it's 380-420 watts.
Can i safely upgrade to 3800X (105W TDP) and maybe try for a static OC ?
Also i'm only using an 8pin for the X570.The extra 4pin isn't supported by the PSU...Can this create any issues in this scenario?
Same for the 3700X,but it has a 65W TDP, so i expect it to consume way less power even with an actual OC...Let me know if i'm wrong at this.
