360mm AIO - Eventually will go full WC Loop with same fans and D5 Pump

So my Question is is my PSU future proof enough?

I would be going for a 1000w unit in your price range no doubt the seasonic is a quality unit but an corsair rmx 1000w would be my first choice.

AMD recommend a 800w PSU for the 7900XTX I would have thought 850w would be enough, but the trend with modern high end GPU's is high power consumption. 1000w would give you headroom and a bit of future proofing.

Think ill hold off to the Seasonic VERTEX PX-1000 appears in the UP for future proofing as it has a 12VHPWR ( not that current AMD cards need it) but doesnt mean that wont change in future.

I've just gone for the NZXT C1000 PSU (2022) - PA-0G1BB-UK - 1000 Watt PSU - 80+ Gold Certified.

Just for clarity, are you saying: "Is my current PSU sufficient for this", or "should I buy this"? I ask because you have that PSU in your signature and if so, I definitely would just try it because it should be fine.

I'd have personally gone for a 1000W ATX 3.0 PCIE-5.0 unit at thtis point.
