Why take such build and put such mediocre PSU?

Anyway, as @Aytex said, a 750 W will ensure you SLI compatibility. This PSU would be nice: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-120g10750xr

shell i go for a gold series?

80+ Gold doesn't mean better, I'm talking about quality, not efficiency.

FSP still in the top list. But If you want to go the Seasonic and Super Flower way, then this is cheaper: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/antec-power-supply-tp750c

It's not the same psu, and the reviews aren't nearly as good.  And its only $6.  I would rather have the best if I was going x99.

No it's not. The Aurum Gold (G1) are good for efficiency and nothing else. You're calling OP's choice of CX750 mediocre and then suggest something worse?
