That PSU is way overkill. Go for 600 or 700 for some overhead.

What will you be using this for?

You could drop the Psu to EVGA S/Nova 850 G2. Good for X-fire if you get another 390x. @Umegadem

1300w, is touch overkill

get the EVGA superNova 850 G2 if you wanna go Crossfire in the future or the EVGA 750 G2 if you dont plan to, I'd get a gtx 980 or 980 ti and not an AMD card. Also I'd get a different cooler, NZXT X41

Saying get a 980 or 980 Ti not a AMD card is quite fan boyish.

390x is a great card. Performs pretty close to the 980 for $80 less. Also a 980Ti is Atleast minimum $230 more.

I'd go for 850w minimum to allow for a future crossfire.

EVGA G2 or GS, T2 P2 Ps will also work.

Any XFX or SeaSonic

Any SuperFlower

I'm not rly an amd fan, I just though that this will fit in

Have you looked into a 390 or even a 390x? The 390 will perform a bit better then a 970.
