Residential circuits in USA are 15-20A, very rarely are they 10 but I’ve seen some super old ones or split 20A breakers in the wild.
A single duplex outlet must be rated to the same amperage as the breaker in order to be code, so with a 5090 PC you’re around half capacity of what you’d normally find, worst case. Nice big monitors take about an amp each, and other peripherals are negligible.
You could easily pop a breaker if you’ve got a bunch of other stuff on the same circuit, but that’s true for anything.
I think the power draw on a 5090 is crazy, crazy high don’t get me wrong, but let’s be reasonable here - electricity costs yes, but we’re not getting close to the limits of a circuit/receptacle (yet).
1000W PSU pulls max 8.3A on a 120v circuit.
