Hello guyz i have some questions about PSU

 

So this is my build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/YzxTNG

 

Now,from all these parts im NOT gonna have the cooler,secong GPU and the case fans!

 

Why i added them? I wanted to know the estimated wattage i was going to need in the future cause thats how i want my rig to end up.

 

Ive read the sticky post on the start "how many watts do i need"?

 

So im on this category(right?)

 

 

Maxwell Gaming PC

CPU: FX-8350/9370/9590, Unlocked Core i7

GPU: GTX 970/980

 

Minimum recommended PSU stock: 400W

Minimum recommended PSU overclocked: 600W

Minimum recommended PSU in SLI: 650W

Minimum recommended PSU overclocked in SLI: 750W

 

 

Now as i said im planning to add a secong GPU in the future so automatically im in the 650W zone

But im also planning to overclock(just a little bit,not HEAVY overclocking)

So here it is: should i stay with the seasonic 660 platinum i chose or should i go with corsair HX750i

If i end up not overclocking and only adding SLI is it enough? (Minimum recommended PSU in SLI: 650W) Minimum...

if i end up overclocking( a little bit) AND adding SLI corsair is enough? (Minimum recommended PSU overclocked in SLI: 750W) Minimum...

 

You guys could really solve me a trouble here cause im back and forth all this time on what should i get

Maybe suggest me a solid PSU of higher wattage?

 

Thanks in advance!

Yes that's more than enough for your build. I would get a VS750M instead of Corsair.  :)

NEX's aren't the greatest from EVGA. G2s are superb and @GiH4R should get one of those.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
