Future Proof PSU Advice?

READ ALL INTO BEFORE CALCULATING PLEASE :)

Can I get help calculating the max watt this system will produce and a recommended PSU? This is my first time build and I've purchased most of the components thus far and are labeled in the link as such. ALSO DOES THE Switftech H320 X2 Prestige Cooler PLUG INTO THE PSU OR A WALL SOCKET?

 

The primary use: This computer is an intensive video editing, VFX, and gaming rig. Its limits will be pushed, the GPU and CPU will be overclocked. The CPU will mostly likely be 4.2hz and the GPU is subject to change upon release of the NVIDIA Pascal release... either I will be purchasing the Pascal or a second 980ti for SLI. I will add an addition HHD, a 1+tb SSD, and a 240mm radiator in the future. The system will be running a max of 9 fans at a time, CAN MY SYSTEM EVEN SUPPORT THAT MANY FANS? Lastly, if you recommend a PSU I'd prefer if was white to match my build but... I suppose that's what plastic-dip is for haha. Thanks in advance guys :)

 

I will be using a 1080p 120hz 48" Sony TV as a monitor initially, but plan two migrate to 4k or multiple 1080p monitors eventually.

Overkill you say... Just get a Corsair AX1500i or an EVGA 1600w. That should basically make you future proof for a long time. (Will also make your rig 400 - 500 dollars more expensive)

Is there a specific company that you like for power supplies?

Anyone with a "Product warranty," I'm not too picky... just don't want it to explode and lose 3-8tb of data and a $3k rig haha. Thats why I'm not fond of the PSU currently in my rig (Raidmax isn't reliable)
