If I wanted to overclock a 9600k with maybe a 1660 ti. Should I consider getting another PSU? Currently I am using an 750w (80 Plus Bronze) EVGA Supernova nex750b.

Also, should I still upgrade if I consider on getting a Ryzen 5 or 7 instead and not overclock?

(Note: I am actually using an FX 6300 thought I bought 4 years ago and planning to upgrade. I got a 750w because it was my first PC and I kinda went overboard on the PSU because I was afraid to fry the PC).

I got an FX 6300 and planning on upgrading. Trying to decide between 9600k or Ryzen 5.

4 years ago, I went overkill with the PSU because I was trying to be extra careful and didn't want to go too cheap on PSU in fear of frying my PC. Sorry if my wording was confusing.
