Hello, technologically minded peoples, I have a question for you.

I would like to know what is the real consumption of a GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and what’s the real minimum power supply required to feed one the needed juice.

I ask to know if my father also needs to change is current power supply or not. (For the graphic card itself, he doesn’t have a choice but to replace it, since his curent one died.)

    The card is rated for 180 watts. It has a single 8 pin power connector, which means the maximum it could possibly draw is 225W. Pick a power supply that will provide that plus whatever the rest of the computer draws. I would suggest oversizing the power supply a bit so you don’t use more than about 75% of it’s rated output.
