Evga g2 750,XFX 750 Ts or Corsair RM750i.These are my choices,you can choose 650 watts,but i prefer having more headroom

Ive heard alot about if you go with to much wattage it loses performance, is it something i should have in mind? Thanks for answering

I only need 500W? The GPU says it needs 750, or am i really on other planet? :o

750W if it's a cheapo Diablotek one. 500W if it's a good one

You should be fine with 550w, but maybe get 650w for extra breathing room

A good quality 550w PSU is fine. Nvidia and AMD exaggerate requirements so they're not liable for people who buy a PSU from that shady guy on the street corner.
