I want to upgrade my GPU from a 3070 FE to perhaps a 5070 Ti. I currently have the RMx Series™ RM750x — 750 Watt 80 PLUS® Gold Certified Fully Modular PSU. I'm unsure how old it is but I built the PC around 4-5 years ago. When looking on Google apparently I need an adapter because the PSU I have doesn't have the correct connector or something. Basically my question is do I have to upgrade my PSU if I was to upgrade my GPU? Apparently you can buy adapters but that doesn't sound safe at all, right?
Also how much of a performance loss would it be to put a 5070 Ti into a PCIe 4.0 motherboard? It's crazy, I only wanted to upgrade my GPU but then a chain of potential problems have raised out of nowhere. I do have anxiety maybe I'm just looking at the worst in things but I really can't afford to upgrade everything. I just want to get myself prepared for BF6 when it comes out. During the play test I was unhappy with the frames I was getting.
