im planning a build and i was wondering if 850 wats (from a cooler master v850) will be enough to power my build

Intel Core i7-4930K cpu
ASUS P9X79 motherboard
8 gigs of G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series (will probably add more later)
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO cpu cooler
Sapphire Radeon R9 280X 3GB Dual-X OC Version graphics card
SAMSUNG 840 EVO ssd (ill add more hdd/ssd's later)
ASUS Black Blu-ray Drive
TP-LINK TL-WDN4800 Dual Band Wireless card
4 Corsair Air Series fans to replace the case fans
im gonna throw it all in a Corsair Obsidian Series 900D case

also any suggestions on the build would be appreciated

Yes a quality 850w would be more than enough.

Buy one. Do I really need to say anything else at this point? Once again, EVGA has something awesome here the competition can't seem to touch price wise. Performance? There are better units, yes. Not very many, but they exist. The real story here is how EVGA keeps managing to offer this kind of performance and still be more affordable than nearly everything else out there, and they have pretty much found perhaps the only OEM on Earth capable of doing it for them. It's got to be real nice being EVGA right now.

The Good:

outstanding ripple suppression
excellent voltage regulation
fully modular
semi-fanless mode
nice blacked out cabling

The Bad:

nothing at all

The Mediocre:

reviewing awesome units is getting dull... where's that gutless wonder in my pile? Second in line? Well, at least I'm guaranteed something interesting in all the wrong ways in a couple weeks...
