How many watts do you need?
Add up what your processor and graphics card draw and leave plenty of headroom. The maker of your graphics card always gives a recommended wattage; follow that advice. As a guideline:
| Type of PC | Guideline |
|---|---|
| Office PC or PC without a separate graphics card | 450 to 550 W |
| Gaming PC with RTX 5060 (Ti) or RX 9060 XT | 550 to 650 W |
