I'm not sure what PSU i should use for my build. I am planning to OC if I need to and probably if I don't.
Intel Core i5-4690K
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
ASRock Z97M Anniversary Micro ATX
G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133mhz
XFX Radeon R9 280X 3GB Black Edition Double Dissipation

Well first, you may as well go for the GTX 970 now, since it's slightly more expensive and gives you a big boost in performance over the 280X, though it depends where you currently reside (Not a fanboy, I am a neutral party).

Second, Pick up this -

Well the gtx 970 is a bit more expensive where I live but I think I'll go for the psu that you suggested unless the price is high

Same OEM, but a lower efficiency rating.
