Corsair rm750x

[Gamer237]

so I have a Corsair rm750x and I’m starting to wonder if I need a bigger psu.
Currently I have a 8700k @ 5ghz at 1.4 vcore, 2 8gb sticks of 3200mhz ram, 2 7200rpm drives, 2 SATA SSDs, 6 noctua industrial 3000 fans, and a DDC pump for my custom water loop.

I was trying to push my CPU to 5.1 ghz but every time I run occt my computer shuts off without any bsods or errors. I’m thinking that my psu is teaching is limits?

I was under the impression that a 750 watt should be enough for a single gpu with a custom loop however I’m starting to doubt that.

Any of you guys have experience in this matter? It would be greatly appreciated.

Overclocking throws power specs out the window.

So pretty much get a bigger psu?

I’m not a electrical engineer but will increasing vcore from 1.4 to 1.45 increase the wattage dramatically?

Depends on silicon - that’s part of the silicon lotto. Yes, it can potentially have a huge effect on power draw.
