P.S. The reason why my power supply is so huge is because I'm thinking about SLI in the future, but to be honest I'm not sure if its worth it.
So am I doing the right thing with a huge power supply for future upgrades or would it be better to go with the ax 760 and stick to single GPU set up? Thank you for your time.
