Best 750W power supply under 80 USD?

I am upgrading the power supply in my current build so I can add some more parts, and I've decided to go with a 750W because that will be more than enough for my future upgrades.  I will use the old one for another build.  Does anyone have any recommendations that don't break the bank?  I am pretty open minded and don't plan on purchasing it for a couple days.

It's not super important the exact wattage amount, but my build will be running an overclocked i5 4690k and 2 GTX 970's.  

 

(I know about the whole "don't sli 970's just buy a 980ti" argument)

The GTX 970 is super power friendly. A 650W EVGA GQ will be plenty.

For an extra $15 I'd rather have the extra headroom and just put a lower load on the PSU.
