i've seen a lot of people having trouble with 850w PSU.

for this kind of set up i think ill recommend a 1000w PSU.
pick a good brand like corsair or seasonic. :)

the evga draws around 428w full stressed
http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/evga_geforce_gtx_5...
the zotac will draw around 321w full stressed
http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Zotac/GeForce_GTX_58...
this alone is 749w
your 2500k is around 106w full load w/o overclock
http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/core_i5_2500k_and_...
and memory and chipset tdp should be around 72-84w
this is roughly around 930w
now keep in mind this is everthing running completely maxed but i would go with a 1000w

the top 2 of these are rated as tier 1 psu and xfx and seasonic are 2 of the best companies you can get
