EVGA 850W G2 (Or G3 if you can find one). Why do you need 850W?

I suggest EVGA G2 or G3

Why do you need 850 watts?

But Corsair RMi/RMx, EVGA G2/G3, Seasonic X to name a few

What are your current specs? Most PCs with a single GPU only need 500W, 750W for SLI (Less would work, just less efficient).

Unless youve got like, 2 titans in your build and a decent cpu to match you won't need 850w

700W would be plenty (Less would work, just less efficient).

Two 970s in SLI plus an overclocked 4790k might hint at exceeding 400W but only barely. A 700W PSU is already plenty. I'd recommend an EVGA 750G2.

[dreamhacking]

i am using an EVGA 850 G2, very solid PSU

if you really want a 850W, look for the G2/G3 like others recommended
