GTX 780 SLI , 544W/45 Amps: http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/geforce_gtx_780_sli_review,4.html

A quality 750W PSU will have 60+ Amps on the 12v rail, so a 750W PSU would do you. But extra headroom is always nice & more often than not the price difference between identical quality 750W-850W PSU's isn't that great. This is nice:
