WAY WAY WAY WAY Overkill on the PSU

WAY WAY WAY WAY Overkill on the PSU

I thought that to be honest but i plan on some point doing dual GPU's and possible more ram so maybe it's a little ahead but

for what I have here what would you recommend for the PSU and still have room for some upgradeability?

[C_Mike]

Yeah no need for a 1000W PSU. 650 would be more than enough. Even for Two Way SLI 980s, 650W is more than enough

Thanks man help is appreciated especially if it helps me save some money too!

 X99 is an enthusiast platform and isn't necessary for a gaming build, not buying could allow that money could be put elsewhere

Um, I would say keept it 750+. Allows for headroom

I plan on doing some video editing and recording and hopefully if and when BT decide to grace myself with fibre optics

some streaming too and having as much upgradeability as possible,

I also wanted a 2011 socket processer and quad DDR4 ram as i'm pretty sure that X99 is required for these two components??

Yeah, just make sure to put all that in the original post next time

You can do 4 way 980 SLI and still have plenty of extra power with 1000W
