It's the best 750w on the market here's a summary from jonnyguru's review.

Summary

The gravy train keeps on rolling for EVGA today with the G2 750W. Expectations were high, and EVGA rose to them without breaking a sweat. I have to imagine that over at EVGA headquarters, they have to regularly take breaks to go up on the roof and yell, "Top o' the world, Ma!" I certainly couldn't blame them. Now all we need from EVGA is their answer to the Corsair AX1500i, and we'll be all set.


The Good:

excellent voltage regulation
less than 15mV ripple on the outputs
switchable semi-fanless mode
excellent build quality
10 year warranty
competitive price


The Bad:

nothing

The Mediocre:

10 year warranty requires registration first

you don't necessarily need 750W for that build, but yes as others have stated..its a awesome tier 1 unit and EVGA has awesome warranty/support.

If you plan to add another card you'd probably want to get the 850W to give yourself some overhead.

jonnyguru says it's even better.



Summary:


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...

I don't see why you need 850watts for crossfire,imo should 750watt be enough.
