I am currently half way through compiling the components I need for my gaming Computer Build.

However, I am struggling on finding a good enough Power Supply for it. I don't have much knowledge on PSU's that are out there. I am just looking for a guidance on which one to buy which will suit my PC. I'm guessing that 650W would be adequate, but this is intentionally built to upgrade in the future.

if there are any other comments relating the other components on the list, feel free to input your opinion.

Thanks.

For 850W PSU's under £100 i'd look at these:
Power Supply: XFX 850W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply (£83.50 @ Ebuyer)
Power Supply: SeaSonic EVO Edition 850W 80+ Bronze Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply (£88.62 @ Scan.co.uk)
Power Supply: EVGA 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply (£94.99 @ Amazon UK)

For something just for now but you would have to replace if you SLI or you might decide just to upgrade your GPU rather than SLI if your not going to be doing it any time soon, i'd look at these:
Power Supply: XFX TS 550W 80+ Gold Certified ATX Power Supply (£59.99 @ Scan.co.uk)
Power Supply: XFX 650W 80+ Bronze Certified...

Thanks. I was thinking of getting a second card sometime in the future, so I take on board about getting a higher wattage of PSU. Any in particular that you recommend? i was thinking the Corsair RM series 850, but it is slightly expensive.

the RAM was meant to have changed, i was intending to only get 8GB originally, and i will be looking into setting up my SSD's in Raid.

Those are all much better choices than the Corsair RM series which has a few problems (some potential cooling issues and cheap capacitors).

You forgot about the CX and AX series as they also use poor capacitors.
