note the photo looks grey but it's really a black/very near black in real life. 

600w Seasonic is more appropriate. 

 

850w Seasonic if you want to SLI in the future. 

 

Seasonic is generally regarded as top shelf. Silverstone (most), Superflower, and some of FSP's follow suite.

Seasonic is one of the best, if not the best brand out there. 

 

If I'm not mistaken, they actually make the PSUs that Corsair uses 

 

EDIT: Also what @helping said. 600w for single card and 850w for SLI, no real point in going for the 750w.

I added another 780ti just to see and it says 708W's so if you plan on going stock for SLI, 750W's is borderline fine but I would recommend something with a bit more juice imo especially if you want to overclock.

Current System: CPU - I5-6500 | Motherboard - ASRock H170M-ITX/ac | RAM - Mushkin Blackline 16GB DDR4 @ 2400mHz | GPU - EVGA 1060 3GB | Case - Fractal Design Nano S | Storage - 250GB 850 EVO, 3TB Barracuda | PSU - EVGA 450W 80+ Bronze | Display - AOC 22" 1080p IPS | Cooling - Phanteks PH-TC12DX_BK | Keyboard - Cooler Master QuickFire Rapid(MX Blues) | Mouse - Logitech G602 | Sound - Schiit Stack | Operating System - Windows 10

 

The OG System: I3-2370M @ 2.4 GHz, 750GB 5400 RPM HDD, 8GB RAM @1333Mhz, Lenovo Z580 Laptop (Ubuntu 16.04 LTS).

 

Peripherals: G602, AKG 240, Sennheiser HD 6XX, Audio-Technica 2500, Oneplus 5T, Odroid C2(NAS).

Nope. a 750W PSU will be fine for any over-clocking or water cooling the OP may want to do in the future. The power draw of a dual 780 Ti build should be, from the wall, between 650-700W. That is the draw from the wall, which, assuming 80% efficiency, means the system will be drawing 520-560W.

CPU: 5930K @ 4.5GHz | GPU: Zotac GTX 980Ti AMP! Extreme edition @ 1503MHz/7400MHz | RAM: 16GB Corsair Dom Plat @ 2667MHz CAS 13 | Motherboard: Asus X99 Sabertooth | Boot Drive: 400GB Intel 750 Series NVMe SSD | PSU: Corsair HX1000i | Monitor: Dell U2713HM 1440p monitor
