Out of all of those, the EVGA supernova 750G2 and Corsair CX750M are probably the better ones, with the G2 being the better of the two.

A decent 550w would already be plenty. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-cx600m

Only reason I've been looking at 750watt was because the box the GPU came in said the card needed a 750 watt power supply 

Ignore those recommendations as they are highly inflated in case you use a crappy psu.

The EVGA B2 is better than the Corsair CX.
