Budget 1000 W PSU?

[BigBig5]

I am building a new computer because my AMD Phenom II x4 940 build just RIP. I will mostly use parts from the old build. Here is the parts list on PC Parts Picker. I also have NZXT Grid+ thats not on PC Parts Picker. I will be getting 1000 W psu for upgrading to SLI/Crossfire and water cooling in the future. What is good 80+ Gold/Silver budget 1000 W psu that I could get?

You wont need a 1000W for dual SLI / CFX. 850 is more than enough for most card. especially the 270X.

why would u need 1000w? 750w-850w is good enough for crossfire with that card, even less wattage with nvidia card. I have 850w psu with 2 gtx 970s

Why do you need 1000W...?

And why do you need a specific efficiency..?

 

Anyways, for the vast majority of SLI/Xfire setups 850W is perfectly fine. EVGAs B2/G2 series would be a good fit.

Nothing really needs more than 850W tbh

Well I will be doing some overclocking.

You'll still have plenty of room. I've run 2x280x's + 3770K overclocked to the snot on an 850W with no issues.

I overclocked my 4790k and both of the gtx 970s, and still of power left for my grandma to plug in her microwave oven. jk but 850w is the most u will every need, 1000w is more for 3 gpus or even 4 gpus. U dont need 1000w, trust us.
