I'm building a new gaming rig, and looking to drop some money on a good PSU to last me a good amount of time. Looking to power an Asus 790GX Mobo, Phenom II X4 940, and two Radeon HD 4770's in crossfire. I will be doing some minor overclocking.
I currently have a 450W PSU, I'm not expecting it to run even one 4770, but would it work?
The new one I want will need 600W or more, as I plan to upgrade my video cards in 1-2 years, and who knows how much power they will use by then.
After browsing newegg for a bit, Corsairs 750W PSU seems to be rock-solid, but looks overkill?
Also I can't tell the difference between these two OCZ PSUs that compensate for the price difference.

I could save $20 by getting Corsairs 650W instead of 750W, but I'm not sure that will cover a potentially-crossfire video card upgrade.
