Well this is simply the dumbest question some of you will get today, but I wanted a second opinion. My gaming rig will have a GTX 980 Ti, Core i7 6700K, SanDisk Ultra II, a HGST 1TB. All in a Core 500. Which has a PSU length limit of 160mm. I have two questions. What wattage will meet overclocking requirements and will fit in the case? Thanks!

BOINC Setup:
i5 7200U @ Stock

Core2Duo T6600 @ Stock

i3 2330M @ Stock

i5 3210M @ Stock

A decent 550w would be plenty. If you would like specific psu recommendations, it would help to mention where you're shopping/located, and budget.

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

EVGA 550W GS is a lot smaller than 160MM so get that :)

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.
