EVGA SuperNova G2 850W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply

[Yurka]

Morning,

Looking to upgrade my system from 4790k to an alderlake setup.

Will the old PSU - EVGA SuperNova G2 850W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply still be sufficient to run a 12700k with 3080 TI or similar?

Regards

On paper it should be more than enough. I would say it would depend on how old it is as PSU's degrade over time. It still is a top notch PSU despite its age, I bought the 550W version almost 6 years ago on the strength of its reviews.

That should be enough power for it unless you plan to overclock it.

What Grimley said, should be fine depending on age. It'll work until it doesn't, then you'll have a reason to get a new one.
