I'm planning to build a gaming PC with AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D and upcoming RTX 5080. What PSU do you recommend for this build?

850W is the sweet spot, but honestly 1000W isn't overkill if you plan to upgrade in the future or do any serious overclocking. I went with a Seasonic Focus GX-1000 and it's been rock solid. The efficiency curve is better at 50-60% load anyway, so you're not wasting power. Plus it's dead silent under normal gaming loads.

5080 TGP is 400W. So get a PSU over 750W. For example: CORSAIR RM850x
