Which Power Supply?

So I need a new power supply. I want a 80+ Gold, >650W, and semi or fully modular. I wanted to get the Supernova G2 750W but the price went way up on Newegg. It's a good price on NCIX ($110, which is my budget) but I'm not a huge fan of NCIX. I'll be willing to order it from them if I can't find anything better, at the same or lower price. What PSU do you guys think I should get? My rig is in my signature. Also before you tell me >650W is overkill, I want a lot of headroom for overclocking and possibly crossfire in the future. Thanks guys.

I'd still get that EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2. Mine is still being shipped from my friend in Canada (because shipping internationaly from any website costs too much). I told them to get it from NCIX. They got it after 3 days

The reason I don't want to order from NCIX is because it took me a week to get my GPU from them. When I order from Newegg I get it by Friday if I order on Monday.

Something like a 750B1 would be plenty: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-110b10750vr

I think it's normal for ground shipping. When I get something shipped from NCIX, it usually only takes 3-4 days. You can get the 1 day shipping though if you really want it fast and ordered before 1PM
