I've had a bad run with some known reliable PSUs recently - two dead Seasonic SSR-650FX over the course of two years - I'm running a GTX 2080, a handful of hard drives, and a Ryzen 7 3700X, and according to pretty much every calculator, I've got a decent amount of wiggle room at 650 watts.

Instead of RMAing the new one, I bit the bullet and got a known-good 750. I know it's not necessary, but I figured I could use that extra power for the future if I upgrade, and I'm wary to put another one of the Seasonic 650FX in my build, since I've had so much bad luck with the others.

I've already got a decent APC power strip, but I picked up a UPS recently, so hopefully it smooths out any issues with power coming in.

So, bottom line, I think one of the only issues I can assume could continue happening after this setup is that either I have very bad luck with PSUs, which can't be helped, or they were overheating from the carpet.

Long question short, TLDR, whatever - Is this enough space under my PC for the PSU bottom intake on a very low-pile/solid carpet? There's a little vent filter down there that I clean on occasion, but it never gets too nasty.

The cords aren't usually down there blocking the underside, I just got done installing the new PSU, so my cables are a mess. I'll get them out of there soon.

Of note, I've got a second media center PC less than a foot away from this one and have had zero issues with PSUs going out, so I might be worrying about nothing.
