current specs

9600k @ 4.9ghz w/ liquid freezer 360
aorus z390 elite
32gb ram
3080 fe
1 hdd,1ssd,1 m.2
4 case fans

have an evga gold 750w. plan on upgrading to alder lake/zen 4(whichever is better and will be overclocking)

since the 3080 is so power hungry should i bump up my psu to at least 850-1000

thanks for the replies, kind of figured i would be ok, i just see people saying 750 is on the edge and i wasnt sure if it wasnt a great idea to run it at around 75%+ capacity
