Question Sapphire Nitro+ RX 7900 XTX PSU Requirements

[Mingusus]

Hi forum

What PSU do I need to run the Sapphire RX 7900 XTX Nitro+ with an i9 14900K?

Will my current Corsair RM1000i Gold from 2018 be sufficient?

You can see my PC specs in more detail here:

For a high-end system and components, it is time to update your PSU. Do you have a budget in mind and source for making a purchase?

I was hoping that my current PSU would be sufficient (I am currently running my PC with a rtx 3080).
Would a Corsair HX1500i be a good PSU choice?

Yes, but really overkill, in terms of wattage.

Your current PSU would most likely power the system reliably, but I do feel that if you're spending this much on a new GPU, it may be worth upgrading to something new as age can derate PSUs.

Hx1500i will work fine if you can afford it
