LOL, I read Nvidia stating 700w is minimum requirement for 4080 Super. Plus the TX-700 fanless will boost to almost 900watts for brief periods, so says Seasonic. 😶

Counting on no PSU heat soaking issues since mine is mounted on an open frame WetBench, like yours. 👍

Have an 850watt Seasonic Titanium (with a fan) on standby if encounter any issues. It's almost 8years old still works great. 🙂

Seasonic says it's updating ALL their fanless skus to the 12+4 output this Summer, hopefully I'll do ok until then. 👍

TG WireView came in, looks pretty cool. 😎
