I'm willing to pay more than 150$ for this PSU and I prefer a Platinium standart PSU. I also forgot to mention that I plan on overclocking these cards.

 
Gold is almost never worth the extra cost and platinum will never be unless you are running at full load 24/7. but its your money to burn. honestly anyone actually needing a platinum rated PSU should not need to ask for recommendations.

then again anyone with money to burn should not be buying one midrange card and buying another later either...

You could also take a look at the next two,
Gold:http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-hx750
Platinum:http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-ax860
I don't see the point of taking a platinum over the gold looking at the price difference,but it's up to you.
