I've currently got fitted a 750w Seasonic prime ultra 80+ Gold in my system which was purchased at the start of 2019.
When I first installed it, I thought it was my Vega 56 that had coil whine but upgraded to a 3080 in 2020 and exact same. It's now doing my head in after 6 years of ownership so looking to change it out. Especially with new cards on the horizon and the upgrade temptations coming along with the PSU aging away.
I know you can most likely run a 4090/5090 easily off an 850w PSU but would likely go a step up to 1000w (Just if I decide to go that high end of a card)
Who are the go to brands? Seasonic still? Ideally would like the latest standard (ATX 3.1 PCIe 5.1).
Edit to add my current setup:
5800X3D X570 motherboard
32gb RAM
3080 FE 10Gb
2 x SSD
1 x M2 drive
10 x system fans
Edit again: Been eyeballing a Seasonic Vertex but maybe overkill as I believe they are platinum?
