PSU Advice

[Shiverik]

Hi folks, I need an advice for choosing the power supplies..
So, my next config for gaming/working will be this:

Mobo: Asus X99 Deluxe
Cpu: Intel Core i7-5960X
Cooling: Corsair Hydro H110
Ram: G.Skill RipJaws 4 DDR4 - 32 Gb 2133 Mhz CL15
SSD : Samsung 850 Pro 256 Gb
HDD : Western Digital Red - 6Tb
Vga: Pny GeForce GTX 970 (x2) in SLI
Case fans: (6x) Noctua NF-A14 PWM
Bluray: Asus BW-16D1HT

A Seasonic X-750 is enough for this config?

Thanks

They're using 4770k CPU which would draw less power than your 8core haswell-e. However, the highest power consumption they got was only 425W for SLI. Add another 100W for your haswell-e and you're still only at 525W. Games typically do not fully load CPU/GPU, but even so you would still have 200W headroom. I think 750W seasonic should be plenty unless you plan to overclock.

Everything in that rig can start sucking some serious power once overclocked, so I think this is a safe recommendation. It should even hold up well for light overclocks. If you're going be overvolting and overclocking to the max though, then I recommend you add at least another 100 watts and go for the seasonic x-850. Otherwise looks good to me

I do not intend to overclock. Anyway, just in case, I'll take an X-850.

Thanks guys!

dude, just use pc partpicker and find prices for the EVGA 1kW, if they are close to whatever you are getting, grab that instead. fully modular, nice cable sleeving, top quality components, nearly platinum efficiency.

and you don't want to push a PSu to 80%~90% of its wattage 24/7, as it will last much less and burn more electricity, plus it will make your system so-slightly hotter.

Seasonic X750 probably but if you intend to go beyond - that is OC's - You're better off with an XFX 850W BEFX KM3 Black Edition PSU. - for a Single GPU. If your thinking OC's an i7 over an SLI/CXF Platform then an XFX 850W BEFX KM3 is about minimum for all Hardware under water.
