Should i buy a 1500 watt psu to prepare for SSD and graphics card upgrade?
My monster pc now isCPU: RYZEN 7 1700
RAM: 16 GB DDR4 3200MHZCL15 GS KILL RIP JAWS
GPU: GTX 970 G1 GAMING
MONITOR: DELLP2416D 24'' 2560X1440 60 HZ IPS
MOTHERBOARD: ASUS PRIME X370 PRO
HDD1: WD BLACK 4 TB
HDD2: 1 TB
PSU: CORSAIR 750M 750 WATT
Soon i will get a MP 600 2 TB which is currently the best ssd avaliable and also a high end graphics card(something a lot more powerful than RTX 2080 TI). Rest of the system will remain as it is. I will buy both at the same time. But to be sure that pc will work ok as it does now will i need to also get a better psu or this will be enough?

might as well upgrade that RYZEN 7 1700 to a cpu supported by your wallet and mobo.

No, even if true, a decent 750 watt would still be plenty. It's not like you have a 200+ watt tdp cpu. Such as 3900X, 3950X, ThreadRipper or Intel 10900K
Shredder, but a bloody power meter already so you may finally understand how much power pcs actually use.

Hell I've offered to pay for it enough times, but until you do, please stop sayi g random bs about how 750watts wouldn't be enough.
I block / ignore anyone I know to be wrong I just block them no point in trying to argue about things they believe they think they know. Waste of time, effort and energy let shredder delude himself.

As i said i took my decision and i will keep the PSU.

Why? We are doing serious discussions about pc hardware. It is not for laughts. Now we have another much more detail leak of RTX 3080 and RTX 3090. https://wccftech.com/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3090-rtx-3080-titan-rtx-ampere-gaming-gpu-specs-rumor/#comment-4961190699 It seems like according to what people say in the comments RTX 3090 will be again 20 or 30% faster than RTX 2080TI like how RTX 2080TI is compared to GTX 1080 TI. It will be ok with the 750 watt psu.

You're a mouthful idiot.

Even if it is true, 750w is enough
. According to my sources at NVIDIA all the leaks about RTX 3000 are fake and the truth is that RTX 3080 wil be 25% faster than RTX 2080TI but he can not tell me yet about how much power it will need he still investigating it but he cornfied to me that it is 100% sure that it will be only 25% faster and price at 1000 euros. If it needs 100 watt more than RTX 2080TI then that will be a problem and will need a better PSU.

350W for the GPU, lets overkill and say 200W for the CPU and 150W for everything else. That's 700W with every piece of hardware in your system at full load, a situation that never happens. (*)

You're fine with 750W. But buy the 1500W anyway, it's nice clear badge to everyone that you don't know what you're doing.

Edit: * outside of benchmarking.

Oof. That's gotta hurt.

Really though, power draw isn't going to get any worse unless NVIDIA has lost their marbles.

Still within your power limit, but, why not go buy that 1500w psu at this point, just incase and I mean, you have a source at nvidia, after all, so best to go with it.
Shredder now has "sources" at NVIDIA.
Man, this just gets better and better.

goes and makes more popcorn*
Really this crap is still going ??? Why?

Listen right. The wattage is only half the story it's more about the power-rails capacity you should care the most about If you have a 1500W PSU you should look at the rails they are represented by a combined power capacity. Each rail be it

3.3V+
5V+
12V+

Depending on what you are doing the rails are relevant to what you use. High performance GPUs will want a strong 12V+ rail with minor voltage variation. And more Amps available on a rail as long as it can continuously deliver that amperage the more consistent the draw on the system overall.

An example the Corsair AX1500i has a combined watage of 1500W on the 12V+ rail. and max combined power of 180W on the 3.3V and 5V rails. USB operates on the 5V

Prime-TRX40-Pro

30A available for USB. Add up the total amps for the occupation of each USB port.
6x USB 3.2 1,500mA = 9Amps total
4x USB 3.2 1,500mA = 6Amps total
Totals 75Ws of power @5V @ 1.5Amps each 5V+ Rail

for all USB ports to be populated

There are other PSU cables ATX12 (receives inputs of 3.3V+ 12V+ and 5V+)
EPS12 or 12V 4+4 power connector (Delivers exclusively 12V on each pin)
PCIe power is the same deliverying exclusively (12V on each pin)
Then lastly there is the Molex Peripheral power connector (Can power misc things) (12V+ and 5V+) Fans,controllers, RGB lighting and so on.

That should clear up understanding as to why or why not you may need a 1500W PSU. But it's your money doesn't mean it isn't a very bad decision and I won't ridicule you for it.
