well, feel stupid after that. I looked over some reviews and stuff and everything showed 4 6+2 vga connectors....apparently it just wasnt for that EXACT model number. In fact, the model number listed on newegg I couldnt even find on evga's website. Newegg (leave it to me to look at reviews and overlook the product page) shows 3 6+2 connectors so it wont even make me ready for crossfire anyway, so back to square 1 on psus. I guess tomorrow will be scouring the internet for cheap xfx's/seasonic's
That is interesting. I would think that would be maybe for a single card with a motherboard that requires an additional 8 pin connection or something how odd. Well Either way Bastiat I would say that unless you are spanning games over mutiple screens and you are going over the resolution of 1440p a single GPU is probably going to be your best bet. I didn't think you were being argumentative you were just questioning/acquiring further knowledge.
Edit: Went back to Jonny Guru's review it shows 4x 6+2's where did you see 3

i'm pretty sure this was the one on shellshocker yesterday. Its a bronze and a "110" in the model number. Take that and make it a "120" and you get 4 pins.

But, anyway, unfortunately, I am going to throw in another. Lets say I just skip the CF planning for now. The Gigabyte MB allows fr it so I would have to change the PSU as well, But I guess I could always reuse a 650W, thats a common level right? Here is another EVGA (I know I sound like I am pushing them, But honestly this is my first build and they "sound" like good deals. )

Or, the cheapest I have seen an xfx 650 is $70 http://www.amazon.com/XFX-PRO750W-Bronze-Energy-Certified/dp/B0045L4BJ6/ref=sr_1_38?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1402061669&sr=1-38
