Hey so I have a gtx 1080 RTX 3080 and an RTX 3080. Is one 850 watt psu enough to power them both?

If it's a good PSU, it might work. A 3080 draws about 250w mining ETH and more in games.

With an overclocked card and high-wattage CPU, you could spike above 850w.

I have an i7 8700 (note the non-k skew here) for a CPU. I have what I think is a pretty decent PSU. Its RM 850x 80 PLUS Gold Certified from corsair
