Hi, I have a really hard time finding a PSU that suits my system and could use some help finding one.

If you can help then, Thanks! :D

 

Specs:
Case: NZXT S340 Midi Tower Black

 

Moto: ASUS ROG MAXIMUM VII RANGER

 

RAM: HyperX Fury DDR3 1866MHz 16GB Black

 

CPU: Intel-Core i7 4790k (I do plan to overclock a little.. maybe 4.4/4.6GHz "Original 4.0GHz".)

 

GPU: MSI GeForce GTX770 OC TWIN (I already have this gpu, if I was gonna buy a new one I would buy a GTX970) (I will most likely go SLI with 770 because they're dirt cheap and perform like a monster.)

 

PSU: ?

 

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB

 

SSD: ? (Dont know if I need one.)

 

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master V8 GTS CPU Cooler

 

Extra:

1xCorsair AF120 Quiet Edt. 120mm Red LED
1xCorsair AF140 Quiet Edt. 140mm Red LED
Cooler Master IC Essential E1 (Termenal Pasta?)
 
If I made any stupid desisions please let me know :) I am quite new to this community.
Btw I am going to go SLI with 770.

@Vrency, get an SSD if you got the budget for it. Also, for the PSU, you will not need to get more than 600w. I have not used a lot of brands (only xfx) so I do not really have a say in it.

Get a 600w EVGA or XFX PSU.

Ok, I'll try to find a good ssd.

Is 600w enough for sli?

600W for SLI 770s? Are you guys crazy? That's what Nvidia recommends for a single 770. I'd go with the EVGA G2 850W. The 750W would be fine too, but the 850W G2 is actually cheaper.

These are expensive, but you need a lot of power running a 4790k and two 770s. And these have ten year warranties. If the G2 850W is too expensive, the Rosewill Capstone 750 is another great option, though it's not modular like the EVGA G2 850.

The Capstone has a 7 year warranty. Both the Capstone and EVGA G2 are made by Super Flower, who makes incredible PSUs (hence the long warranties).

Another great option is the Rosewill Capstone 1000W modular for $100 after rebate if you want a modular PSU but don't want to spend for the EVGA G2 850

Same great quality as the Capstone 750W, same seven year warranty.
