The EVGA power supply is more than needed, but if you are in a hot climate then the extra headroom should allow it to run quieter. You get hybrid fan mode as well with the G2.

 

Not sure you need the extra thermal compound, but it might reduce temps a little which will be helpful.

Thanks buddy.But I don't think so having crossfire/sli on a single display is worth it.I have already made a choice now.Either wait for 5th gen or never buy

Unless you use applications that utilize the i7's hyper threading well you don't need it but that's up to you. I just wish I had twenty seven hundred and change to play with honestly=p
