My build,

 

CPU: i7-4790k

GPU: 2x gtx1080ti

SSD: 3x

RAM: 2x 8Gig

Fans: 10x 140mm

Pump: 2x D5

Optical Drive: x1 Combo

 

So I am thinking a 1000w PSU would do it, but its always good to have a second opinion. Also I was thinking in the future to upgrade to an 8 core cpu maybe so a little extra wattage might be nice for that. Let me know what wattage you think and any good PSU recomendations. Thanks in advance.

Yes, but you don't need 1000W. 850W should be fine.

EVGA G3 is another solid choice too but shorter

I'd personally recommend a 1000W for OC. 980Tis were known to consume 350W-400 if the PCI power slider was maxed out in Afterburner and 1080Tis consume more power, like the rest of the Pascal lineup, than their Maxwell counterparts.

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

Ok thnx for the reply I am thinking of going with a corsair PSU. I currently have a evga supernova g2 750w. It works just fine but the fan is rather loud. It looks like corsair is boasting about there quiet fans, that shut off while not stressed. I am stuck between 2 corsair psu that frankly look the same to me. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Productcompare.aspx?CompareItemList=58|17-139-139^17-139-139%2C9SIA85V3NU8688^9SIA85V3NU8688

The RM1000 is an older, worse design. The RMi is a newer, better design with Corsair Link. I'd get the RMi.
