Is this Power Supply enough? (750w) or should I up it to 850?

https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/power-requirements-for-graphics-cards-20 says you need a 600w PSU. The Corsair RM750x is a very good power supply, so I don't think you'll have any problems. But with the 2x140mm fans and the water pump, and all your extra case fans, and 2 big ole HDDs, you might want to err on the side of prudence and go with the 850, especially with that whole overclocking thing. I'm kinda anal, and just a little bit paranoid, so I'd personally do the 850.

I'm going to go with the 750w. I'm kind've anal too about it but even with all those additions I do think 750w is more than sufficient. Power usage isn't nearly as high as most people seem to think it is. Though, I do see your point...I doubt it but if it does end up limiting me down the road I'll just snag the 850 and throw this 750 in a lesser build. Thanks guys
