HI! Im planning to upgrade some of my pc components (a new i5 12600k, GIGABYTE B760M and an m2 ssd)
Should i change my old evga 600w 80?
(If somethings is writted oddly is because im not ang english speaker)

probably yes, that sounds like a 9060xt,5060ti or a 9070xt maybe if you have like a 3070,probably no but i think psu upgrades are good and cheap go for a 750W or 850W atleast C tier
Electrical-Citron-72@reddit (OP)
A humble 3050. what you think?
puchi2701@reddit
you should be good, the i5 is wattage consumer but not the 3050 but is is for gaming, maybe upgrade gpu???
Electrical-Citron-72@reddit (OP)
Do you have any recomendation? im kinda in a mid range budget
puchi2701@reddit
1080p gaming or 1440p? the 9060xt is 450 and it can do 1080p gaming without problems and very good 1440p gaming also your new 12600k is not going to bottleneck it, i think the 3050 is a low power for that cpu, but is is not for gaming dont upgrade it, if you play games like fortnite or cs2 also dont upgrade it
puchi2701@reddit
if you upgrade gpu and cpu also buy a new psu (750W probably)
puchi2701@reddit
the msi mag a750gl is a good one
