The M12ii 520w is a very old design, but it's not bad.

The RTX2060 draws less power than something like an RX580. The M12ii wouldn't be my first choice, but I think since its currently working and shouldn't be a danger, I would keep the PSU until PSU prices return to normal.

Thats good to hear i got scared while reading other posts that the m12ii is bad. Maybe ill wait a little when the prices drop or ill upgrade both my PSU and GPU at the same time. I have one more question, if i upgrade my gpu to 3060 is the focus gx 550 enough to run it? Sorry im not very knowledgeable in computer stuff just the basic ones.

Seasonic PX 550 VS Seasonic Focus GX 550 which one is better? or should i go with the Seasonic Focus GX 650w for the extra 100w?
