Hello,
I'm torn between 2 different PSUs. They are the same (?) except for the wattage (650 and 750). After, my build won't be upgraded other than an additional 6870 (at a later time). Do I need a 750 W PSU for this crossfire if im not going to upgrade for a while? Is a 650 W PSU suffice?

I am trying to cut corners as much as I can to keep it under $1000...
My (soon-to-be) build:
ASUS M4A89TD PRO/USB3 - MOBO
HIS H687F1G2M Radeon HD 6870 (x2 at a later date) - GPU
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T Thuban 2.8GHz - CPU
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 - RAM
Western Digital Caviar Black WD6402AAEX 640GB 7200 RPM SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive - OS and Storage
ASUS DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS Black SATA 24X - DVD Burner
Also, I am going to buy an aftermarket cooler and OC the CPU a bit.
