So I am working on upgrading my pc and looking at power supplies. I see that some of them support PCIE 5 power and some do not. So my question is, if I get a PSU that is on the old standard and I later buy a GPU that only has PCIE 5 power, is using an adapter to fit the old power supply to the new GPU a bad idea? Or is this generally something that would be OK assuming quality components?
It would be fine as long as the power supply handles the power needs and transients of the GPU.
