you don't need nearly that much power (unless adding another 970 later) get a 500W. Make sure it's Gold.

they dont have a gap between them. both 750w, 80plus bronze and semi modular

 

EVGA offers better support and warranty as far as i know (Recon97s post) and i didnt use an XFX yet

i know the EVGA comes with black sleeved cables and i like the sleek design better

thats it ;)
