Hallo my fellow geeks :D

I'm currently looking for a new PSU, as the old one keeps going up in smoke no matter how meny times i get a new one xD
I'm doing an 4.4 Ghz OC at the moment, but would like to try for higher, also start doing som RAM and GPU OC'ing. Also worth mentioning that i'm getting a 1070 when they hit the streets, and a 2end one within a year for SLI.
But i'm honestly lost when it comes to what PSU i need for stable & high OC, so i'd love some advice! :D

My system is:
ASUS Sabertooth Z77
Intel i5 3570k - 4.4 OC
NZXT Kraken X41 Hydro cooler, double Noctua 12mm fans.
Kingston FuryX 8gb 1866 - Upgrading to 2133 soon.
ASUS GeForce GTX 670 x2 SLI.
x2 850 Samsung SSD
X3 2TB seagate HHD.
ASUS Sata CD/DVD-R
CM Silencio 550 with fan Mod.
x4 Noctua 12mm case fans.

I'm currently looking at something like:
EVGA SUPERNOVA G2 750W
Or
Corsair RMX RM750x

But as i mentioned above, ive got no clue if one of these are even what i need.

Please help a lost soul ;)
 
Solution
both evgas G2 and corsairs new RMx RMi units are great .
you cannot go wrong with either of them
although i would say leadex platform is a bit better :
so G2 it is .

Thank you! :D
So a G2 750 or RM750 would not be enough for sli i take it? Only if I were to stick with a single 1070, or even a 1080 and not doing SLI with the new 100 series. Or do i still need a 850? :)

Yeah indeed, your logic is undeniable - 850 it is then! ;) hehe.

If I may trouble you for a last question - Do you have a personal recommendation of a unit i should buy?
As i'm having a hard time figuring out what should make me buy Corsair over EVGA, ect.
