      Your build must have a minimum of a Gold efficiency rated PSU from a proven brand such as Corsair, EVGA or Seasonic. Which power supply do you need?
      I told you i own a 1060 3gb not a 3060ti.

            1. PSU is under rated
            2. the more you use it the more chances you take of screwing up the system and having to replace more parts

            With the fact that you have been using the system with such an underrated PSU the longer you wait the more expensive it may cost you to fix in the long run.

            Refer to the link I posted in Post # 15

                    Take the display card requirement and add 150 watts to that.
                    Basically

                        You will have to take out the old psu anyway, so see if the measurements are on it or take some measurements ..

                            The PSU guidance given is bang on the money not only because the PSU cannot produce the claimed 450W but also because of the cheap and nasty ACBel brand that the PSU is, after Bestec they are probably the worst brand that brand name computers use to keep their build costs down.

                            What happens when you press the power on button, is the PC completely dead or does the PC start but you get no video signal.
