Hey guys i need some help picking out a good PSU for a white/black themed PC mod that I'm planning on building in August.

 

Here is a link to my build on PCpartpicker: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/KyQgsJ

 

Now it's currently showing up at 324w, however i am planning on getting dual ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1070 AMP! Extreme, when they become available. Now the power consumption is not yet specified. So I was thinking of using Zotac's 980 Ti Amp! Extreme as an fill in. Those cards use 250w so my PC power consumption would be at 824w.

 

Another thing is i'm a big fan of Corsair PSU (Always used them always was satisfied). Could i get by a AXi 860? or would it be better to get a AXi 1200? or is the 1200w to big?

 

If either of those two do not suffice maybe a HXi 1000 or RMi 1000?

 

I basically have everything on the PC Part Picker list except graphics cards, water loop and psu. Also forgot to mention that the EK Pump uses 20w.

No two modern Nvidia GPUs in any formation require 824W. An 850W EVGA GS/G2 can power quad 1070s if you don't overclock.

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