Hi, I'm looking for a good PSU for the rig I have in mind:

maximus VI hero
i7 4770k (planning to oc it up to 4,5 -4,6 if stable) cooled with corsair h100i cooling kit
16g ram (x2 8gb sticks DDR3)
gtx 780 (asus direct cu II)
1 HDD 1TB
1 SSD 128gb
1 DVD-RW
case= corsair vengeance c70

Most threads I've found suggest something in between 750w to 850w.

My budget for it would be about 150€ (120GBP)

oh, and I almost forget, the more silent the better.

I'm really fond on corsair (maybe the RM 850?) but I'm open to suggestions.

what would you buy? Is 850 too much?

Thanks in advance




 
Solution
Get Seasonic X-850W PSU, RM PSU uses cheap capacitors which degrades under heat, Seasonic X-850W also has fanless mode under small load so it's also not loud PSU like others, 850W would be plenty for OC and SLI.
