Hey guys,

 

I'm going with a I7-6700K, EVGA 980Ti, 256GB SSD, 2TB 7200 drive, 16GB 2800 MHz RAM, Kraken x61 cooler and 3 LED strips is a EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G1 80 PLUS Gold Power Supply going to be fine?

Yup, if you use PC Part Picker it'll actually show you the required wattage and also show you where to get the best deals. If possible get an EVGA G2 series PSU :)

EVGA G1 series are old and outdated. I'd either get a G2 or a GS. Also, 650W is enough.

EVGA B2/GQ/GS/G2 are much better options than the G1. 750W is plenty though. 650W, if it saves you money, is an even better bet unless you plan to SLI in the future.

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