Hello,

I am looking for a new power supply because I think I could recoup some of the cost of my current one (Lepa G1600-MA). Originally I was running an AMD FX 8 core overclocked to 4.6GHz with 3 GTX 275s in Tri-SLI. I recently got an Intel i7-3770k and GTX 760, but as you might think, my PSU seems like it's just a bit of an overkill now.

My thoughts are to sell the Lepa and go with either a Corsair TX750 $100 or an EVGA Supernova NEX750B ($70 after MIR). I'm not really sure what the "good" psu brands are (I've heard some good things about Corsair, and EVGA has always been great for their GPUs), but I'm not really looking to spend more than $120.

I am thinking that I could then sell the GTX 760 and buy GTX 780.

If you plan on adding a second GPU, the TX750 would be perfect for that. If you plan on upgrading to a 780 (or higher), a good 650W unit (XFX/Corsair (AX/TX/HX lines)/SeaSonic) will do wonders. But if you plan on SLIing the 780s in the future, I would look at something aroun 850W.
