That CCFL already has the inverter built in so you just need to plug it into a Molex (4pin) connector. Raidmax aren't exactly high quality PSU and you don't need 1000W for that build.

This XFX 550W (Tier 1 Seasonic) will work just fine.

If you really want a 1000W pick this EVGA (Tier 1 Superflower)
