Hi all, im looking at getting a new psu and have picked the below.  

 

http://www.corsair.com/en-gb/rm-series-rm650-80-plus-gold-certified-power-supply

 

Think it will be goof enough for an i5 4670k and 2 7950 not overclocked?

Bump it up 50W/100W and drop the RM series, they are known to have crap secondary capacitors.

 

650W on most supplies is not enough.

Corsair RM is shit, go for something from EVGA or seasonic.

If you are buying brand new 7950s, dont, buy the single most powerful gpu you can afford, you will thank me later.

If you are getting a second 7950 and already have one, its "fine" but i still tip the balance to getting a single better GPU
