Hey there I need a fitting power supply for this build and all the tests I tried showed quite different results so I gotta ask you guys :)

here is my build:

case: Corsair Graphite Series 780T

SSD(s): 512gb Samsung 950 Pro m.2, 1000GB Samsung 850 EVO

Motherboard: Asus Rampage ROG V Extreme / 3.1

processor: Intel Core i7 5820k

Ram: 32 GB Corsair Dominator Platinum ddr4 2400hz

Graphics card: GTX 1080(might put two in the coming years)

also please keep in mind I probably put 1-2 more SSDs or an HDD as a storage device in the coming future

Erm... You REALLY don't nned this. You can save SO much money by getting a cheaper motherboard, cheaper RAM, Wheres the CPU cooler? You also DON'T need 1.5TBs worth of SSD Storage, that 512Mb m.2 is plenty for games and HDDs are still fine for MASS storage.

 

When are you getting this also? This build also shows me that you took suggestions straight from Linus which I do not condone with as in his eyes, yougo big or go home on every party.

For the PSU, a 850w EVGA GS GQ or G2 is a good one to allow for future expansion and SLI.

Oh yeah I forgot the cooler my bad, yeah I´m still trying to figure out I  unfortunately, tend to

 

go big in the first place. About the SSDs yeah I guess you are right I sort of didn't think too well about that. Any recommendations for the RAM or the Motherboard? Oh right and the CPU cooler I was looking for is the Corsair Hydro Series H110i GTX

RAM - http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/memory/#s=402400,402666,402800,403000,403200&Z=32768001,32768002,32768004,32768008&sort=a10&page=1

You have to hold yourself back, Ram is ram. The Dominator Platniums give no true advantage over any other RAM. They are all the same with different heat sinks on them that cost maybe a few bucks to make if that.

Motherboard - One problem, Asus. Despite what anyone says, I wish you the best of luck if you ever have to deal with Asus customer support. It is so bad and honestly, if you get a DOA just get ready to wait 2-3 months. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asrock-motherboard-fatal1tyx99professional31 This board is very good, has the USB 3.1 and is much cheaper. Also has a 3 year warranty.

As for the CPU cooler, I personally like the NZXT x61 Kraken though for aesthetic purposes the Corsair H110i GTX is a good choice and I have no objections there. Also keep in mind the PSU I suggested, 8 year warranty and I had an RMA done with EVGA in less than a week, no extra charges were needed, they sent me a new one, I sent it back in the box they sent me the new one in.

Fixed that for you, it would give almost no advantage for similar RAM with same speeds and latency :)
