I am deciding which power supply i should get, I think I narrowed it down to these 2: Evga SuperNOVA P2 (the platinum not 80+ gold G2 version) vs the Corsair RM 1000w.

My System:
Evga GTX 780 classified
I7 4770k
Corsair Vengeance pro 16gb (red)
NZXT Switch 810 (if you think another case is better please tell me, I'm not completely on broad with the switch)
Corsair H100i or h105 (the h105 comes with a red band, and im going with a red theme)
Samsung 840 EVO 250gb

1000w is overkill but it gives me headroom. my budget is 2000 dollars and if you think i should change something, please tell me. Its my first build and i haven't gotten anything yet.
 
I would not use the RM series. They use the same low quality capacitors that like to fail in the CX units.

Unless you plan on adding 2 more GPUs in the next year just get a 650w unit, 750-800 if you want too use 2 GPUs. If you don't plan to add more GPUs for 2-3 years it is pointless to get 1000w as the PSU will be old and need replacing even if it is a quality unit.
