Good day!

I'd like to know if my PSU can run a 3070 and a i5 11600KF.

I just scored a i5 - 11600KF and Gigabyte B560M Aorus Elite for cheap and im planning to pair them with a RTX 3070 card and remove my current AIO and replace it with a Deepcool Gammax 400XT or Gammax V2.

I'd like to point out that I don't intend to overclock the 11600K, I just bought it because it was cheap and plan to game on a 1080p or upscaled 1440p.

PC Current Specs:
CPU: i5 - 6600
AIO: ID Cooling 2 Fan (Planning to replace with a S
Chassis Fans: 5 Corsair SP120 RGB
MOBO: ASUS H170 Pro Gaming
RAM: 16GB Gskills Trident Z 3200mhz
GPU: Asus GTX 1070
PSU: Seasonic 620w bronze modular

Thank you and Merry Christmas!
 
If your 3070 is not a factory overclocked version and uses only a single 8 pin pcie connector, you could try it.
Likely your 1070 uses the same power.
The problem is that 3000 series cards can have high power demand peaks which an older psu may not be able to handle.
Monitor carefully and be prepared to change out the psu if you have any issues.

Im planning to replace it with a bronze Corsair CX 750watts can that be enough?
