I won't have a 2nd GPU right away but I plan to add one. I will be doing lots of overclocking on the CPU (Once I get a custom loop).

Fully Modular is a must

I recommend the Corsair RM850i

 

More than enough wattage for your system.

Its pretty new, fully modular, digital, has corsair link, and looks great. You could go with the AXi series, but the only difference really is the efficiency rating and it costs more. I would spend that money on cablemod sleeved cables instead.  I do not recommend the HXi series as it is old and outdated, and inferior to the cheaper and newer RMi series other than in efficiency.

An EVGA 850G2 or Corsair RM850i will work.

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