Nvidia states 750W minimum, but u can get away with 700-650 if you undervolt the gpu
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I was able to make it through the order process here on Best Buy's website on 10/9 and had my 3080 FE delivered on 10/13. I am writing this on 10/16 and I have been using it since I received it with a 650w PSU. It should be noted that my PSU is an 80+ gold rated Corsair RM650x (Tier A / top tier from my understanding according to some PSU rankings, including a list from the LTT forum). This is my first build, but my understanding is that as long as it is a high quality PSU, you can get away with 650w or even 550w (don't do this) according to some tech YouTubers (I think Gamer's Nexus and maybe Hardware Unboxed did videos on this). Nvidia recommends a 750w for the 3080 and 3090, but I believe that is due to some lower quality PSUs not being able to deliver that full, "box-advertised" capacity.
