Hello,

I recetly decided to buy new rig/upgrade current...so..
I planning a i5 4690k+GTX970 (later 2x970 SLI)+8/16 gigs of RAM

/Here is pcpartpicker link: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/R9rhxr /

Q is:What PSU should i buy for this components?? when i planning going to 2-way SLI later,almost sure CPU and GPU overlocking.Max price is 110 dollars

Can you recommend any good PSU for my build and fit my requirements??

Thanks you.

look if u plan On increasing the TDP when Overclocking the cards get the 850 coz u want to run the PSU @ around 80% of it is maximum capacity

so that it runs quiter if u plan on Light Overclocking just increasing the clocks a bit get the 750W

if the 850W is nearly as expensive as the 750W grap the 850W for future proofing (in case u wanted to go with heavy Overclock)

It's best to avoid the g1 and b1 series. They aren't horrible and will work in a pinch, but the B2, G2, and GS series are much better units.

That's the 850w version which is still a very good PSU. Here's the one I linked to.
