Psu suggestions

dubs · 26 Dec 2025 at 21:11

I've been lucky enough to win (via kitgurus advent calender) new graphics card (5070ti)

My current psu is an old evga Supernova750w G2.

Need suggestions for a replacement for the following setup

Aorus B450 wifi motherboard of some sort
Ryzen5700x
1 dying vega56
Crucial ballistix 32gb 3200
1 m.2 drive
2 ssds
1 Hdd pic storage
4 140mm fans non right

want something that will give me a bit of headroom to maybe upgrade some other parts in the future.

Cheers and Merry Christmas

lucky indeed!

any of these would be fine:
(B+ tier, 10y warranty) https://www.overclockers.co.uk/fsp-...e-5.1-modular-power-supply-pow-fsp-06657.html
(B tier, 8y warranty) https://www.overclockers.co.uk/phan...power-supply-modular-black-pow-phk-02519.html
(A tier, 10y warranty) https://www.overclockers.co.uk/msi-...plus-gold-modular-power-supply-ca-00y-ms.html

I'd be waiting until you need a new PSU, OR upgrading to a 1000W, not sure if adding another 100W of overhead is really worth swapping out a working unit for.

Congratulations on the 5070ti by the way.

Bought the Phanteks one, but the 1000W version. Really impressed, no coil whine.

The current evga is over 10 years old and doesn't have the facility of a 12vphr (or whatever its called) plug.

An adapter should be included in card's box. G2 is a super flower unit I think, "old but gold" is the quote on SPL's tier list.

You didn't need that much power.

I know that but was cheaper than the 1000w version at the time of purchase

I have a 5700x rig too and I wanted a PSU sufficent for any GFX card up to a Nivdia #800, or any AMD card with a 10 year warranty.

I scanned the SPL tier list and ended up buying this.

My basket at OcUK:

1 x be quiet! Pure Power 13 M 850W ATX 3.1 80 Plus Gold Power Supply (SKU: POW-BEQ-05637) = £112.99

Total: £116.99 (includes delivery: £3.99)
