So you you really need something around 550W like be quiet Dark Power Prol, Super Flower Leadex (II), Bitfenix Whisper M...

Yes but why 700watts? what are u planning with ur build?

Eh, those two plus an i5 would use around 450W so whatever, 700W isn't a terrible idea. An EVGA 750B2 is a good inexpensive choice.

As STRMfrmXMN said, the EVGA Supernova 750B2 is a great choice. It's 80+ Bronze without being too expensive and it's semi-modular. For a fully modular one the EVGA G2 is Gold rated and costs maybe $20 more (if you want fully modular). 

 

And guys, he's asking for a good 700W power supply, not if that's enough or good enough for his build. If he feels more comfortable with a bigger PSU which gives him room to expand in the future for whatever he wants then that's what he should buy.  Also when PSU's aren't used close to their maximum rated capacity they are usually more efficient than one being maxed out.

No need for a 700W PSU. 450-600W is more than enough for your build.

 I think @GreenToxon explained this nicely.

I agree, a EVGA 750w B2 is a nice budget minded choice.

I know he asked for a 700W PSU. But he doesn't need one. GPU's are using less power these days so if he would upgrade to an GTX 1070 or even run them in SLI a 450-600W PSU would be more than enough. Why spend more money on a PSU that you don't really need.

EVGA 650w or a 750 if you really want that much power.  Links below.

The Asus Prime Z270-P doesn't support SLI so no need for a 700W psu. A good 450W/550W is enough.
