I am planning on buying a RM 750X is it overkill??

Overkill, but the RM750x is extremely good.

What are you using this computer for?
What are you planning on upgrading it with in the future? SLI or Crossfire?

I'd get something like a Corsair CX450, BeQuiet! PurePower 10 400W, Coolermaster V550  (That is stupidly cheap at $79, especially since they are selling the exact same PSU for $109, probably pricing error), XFX TS 550, and the higher wattage models of those unit, excluding the CX (CX 450/550/650 are the good ones, CX430/500/600 are meh)

Easily. I'd get the Coolermaster, but I have a feeling that the $79 one will never get into stock, anyway $109 is still very cheap for a Coolermaster V550

in here the options are stupidly limited. these are the few good ones available here

CM G650

Corsair RM  750X

Corsair TX 650M

FSP Hydro 600W

Where are you shopping from? I'll see if there is better choices out there.

The RM750X is very good, the TX650M is good, the G650M is okay, same with the Hydro.

it looks fine but not available here. how about a TX 650 M

Get the gold rated instead of the bronze because the bronze is reported that its fan has blown

Of those I'd probably get the TXM.

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