TLDR : Answer Summary
To change your current banking deposits from the required 65,000 THB to 800,000 THB for your retirement visa renewal, you need to deposit at least 800,000 THB into a Thai bank account in your name. This amount must remain in the account for at least 2 months prior to applying for the yearly extension. After the approval of your extension, the amount should stay for a minimum of 3 months, and for the rest of the year, the balance should not fall below 400,000 THB.

If you like to apply at Immigration for a new 1 year Extension of Stay.

The requirement actually is:

at least 2 months prior application a minimum of 800,000 Thb into a Thai bank account on your name, the money MUST stay in that account for at least 3 months after approval of the extension and the rest of the year NOT less than 400.000 Thb.

And this comes back year after year as you apply each year for a new 1 year stay

You would need to get 800K baht in a thai bank account in your name only for 2 months before you apply for your yearly extension.
