[SOLVED] should i upgrade my power supply

[luka1000]

hi i just did a test on how much power i might consume when i get my new graphics card (msi rtx 2060) and this was my results https://outervision.com/b/ouEiZ0
i have a CORSAIR CX Series CX450 450W ATX12V 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC Power Supply right now do you think that is okay

Yes, I will upgrade the psu. It may still be fine but cut too close imo. Budget and country?
7700 tdp is 65 W, GPU tdp is 160 W but max could be more, rest is ~50 W

I would upgrade to a decent 550w PSU , the calculators over estimate.
A CX550 would be fine.
