A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Depends on your CPU and whatever else you have in your PC (e.g. is your cooler a beast too? Do you have six spinning disks? etc).
Generally speaking, 750W should be fine if you're using a boring air cooling setup with an SSD or two.
absolutely. some cpu can draw more than the 180 watts of a 5060ti, even without actual 'overclocking', all by themselves when boosting their own clock (such as intel's "turbo power"). even a '65 watt' ultra 7 265 can get up to that.
