Advice on PSU when updating MoBo and CPU

[JWilde]

Hi,

I am currently planning on updating my CPU and motherboard, but I am not sure if the PSU I currently have is compatible. I am looking to upgrade to an Intel I7-10700K and an Asus Prime Z590-P motherboard, and my current PSU is Thermaltake Smart SE 530W 80+ Bronze Efficiency. Some websites I have looked at say that the Asus Prime 7590-P has an additional 4-pin ATX power connector and I don't know if my current PSU provides for that. If it doesn't, how much of a problem is this? I'm new to building/upgrading and am nervous about touching the PSU. Any help is much appreciated!
The rest of my current specs are below.

RAM: Partiot Viper Steel 3200MHz (2x8gb, though planning to get another two sticks of this when I upgrade)
GPU: Nvidia GTX GeForce 1660 SUPER
CPU Cooler: Corsair H45 Liquid CPU cooler
SSD: Samsung 860 QVO 2tb
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 5400rpm 6tb

I currently have an Asus Z170-A and an Intel I5-6400 2.7Ghz.
I'm not against the idea of switching to AMD cpu and AMD-compatible MB, but needing to update the bios before it works puts me off a bit.

Would recommend "gentle" touching of that PSU with big and heavy blunt instrument before dumping it into WEEE.

Ha, that's fair. I got it quite a few years ago when I didn't have much of a budget to speak of. Seems like saving up just that little bit more and getting a decent PSU when I upgrade might be the best way forward then. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the advice all! Based on the help I got here, I've gone for an AMD Ryzen 7 5800x, an MSI B550-A Pro and a Corsair RMx 750w. Very thankful for the advice to upgrade the PSU and to splash out a bit on it!
