PSU Help Please!

Hi everyone, I am currently planning my new build and I'm still not sure on what power supply to go with. 

 

Here is the build:

 

CPU: i5-4690k

Cooler: Stock for now

RAM: 8gb ddr3 Hyperx Fury Black

Motherboard: Asus z97-pro (Wifi)

SSD: 120gb Samsung 850 EVO

HDD: 1tb Seagate Barracudda

GPU: GTX 970 Reference

Case: Corsair 760t White

PSU: ?????

 

At the moment I only have one GPU but I will most likely add a second for SLI. 

 

I'm looking in the 750-850 watt range. 

 

My #1 pick is the EVGA 750 G2.

 

Any other considerations are appreciated.

 

I would also like modular and all black cables along with good efficiency rating. 

 

Thanks

You're not going to do much better than that without paying a decent chunk more.

Titan: Intel Core i7-5820K | ASUS X99-A | Crucial Ballistix Sport 4x4GB DDR4-2400 | ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 970 | OCZ Arc 100 2x256GB in RAID 0 | Seagate Barracuda 2x2TB in RAID 1


EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2 | Fractal Design Define R5 Titanium Window | Phanteks PH-TC14PE | ASUS BW-12B1ST

850w is overkill even for sli. A decent 700w is already more than enough. 

The 750G2 is great.
