If you need to know your PSU wattage (e.g., before buying a new graphics card), physically inspect the PSU sticker or check your purchase receipt. No software, including on Windows 11, can read that number for you.

While you cannot see the PSU rating, Windows 11 and third-party apps can show you how much power your PC is currently consuming. If your PC is stable under heavy load, your PSU wattage is likely higher than the number displayed.

If you are using a pre-built computer from a major manufacturer (like Dell, HP, Lenovo, or ASUS) and have not modified it, you can find the PSU wattage on the manufacturer's website.

Finding your power supply (PSU) wattage on Windows 11 isn't as simple as checking your RAM or CPU. Unlike other components, the PSU has no data connection to the motherboard, so .

These tools read the PSU's label wattage, but they show real-time usage. You can estimate if your PSU is adequate.

If you have a dedicated GPU, the control panels often show power draw.

Unfortunately, that can directly read the physical maximum wattage (e.g., 500W, 750W) of your power supply unit (PSU). Windows only sees how much power is currently being used by components, not the label rating on the PSU itself.
