Hi, I’ve been wondering, does every predator PC come with the same PSU? I’ve seen people saying in some replies that the PSU is a 500w one. I’m not sure if that is true in my case too, as my PC came with gtx1650 and this gpu doesn’t need that much power.

I’m asking because I’d like to get an rtx3060 which requires at least 500w (550w to be precise but I’ve also seen people saying that 500w default PSU would be enough, as it’s the new type).

    More watts always sounds better. But the existing 500watt unit should handle the 3060's max 225 watts consumption OK if it has enough room. It's about 24cm long, 11cm tall and 4cm wide, The one you have in there now is about 14 cm long with about the same height and width. Two 500watt PSUs that were used in this model as shown below.
