Thoughts? 4K 980Ti SLI

Any help or advice anyone can give me on this build? I'm going for a black and white them. Probably gonna switch to white water tubing at some point soon. Also I'm using 2 980Ti's not 1 (Newegg and its stupid limit)

I would swap out the RM 850 for something like the EVGA 1000 G2

Well, while the RM series aren't necessarily bad power supplies, it's just not the best for the price, and I also like to have a ton of PSU headroom, but that's just me. I think you should be able to get by with 850 watts, in which case the EVGA 850 G2 could suit you. Eh, forget what I said, the RM 850 is slightly cheaper than the EVGA 850 G2, so not really worth it. I'd say go for it, though that CPU cooler looks a bit mundane in contrast to the rest of the powerful system, though it will certainly do its job.

Or just get a evga g2 850w, no real reason to up the watts. Can save some money that way and get a better psu.

Only the axi's are. But they ever overpriced as hell, the rest of the lineup is still overpriced and pretty every average electrical performance.

sorry I thought I saw dual 980 ti's in that case I would suggest a 850GS as the OEM is seasonic and is a solid choice.

And for the g2 it's superflower. Which is just as good and cheaper.

 

If your overclocking the GPU's and CPU's you will need over 850 watts to be on the safe side, so get a 1050GS because it's a seasonic.

And he really won't need more than 850w. He could get by on a 750w if he wanted to so long as it was a good one. 850w is enough for the OC headroom.
