I was recently thinking about upgrading the graphics card to an RTX 3060 Ti but I wasn’t sure if the 430W Platinum PSU was enough (no overclocking). Any thoughts? (I do intend to move the gpu to a new build later on so this is only just temporary.)

@some_person , welcome to the Community.

 

According to the specifications of your computer the PSU is only 400W.  Here are the specifications for the RTX3060 Ti as provided by nVidia.  You should select the Tab titled "Specs" at the top of the page and "View Full Specs" when the page opens.  The specifications state that the system power should be 600W for the Ti.
