I haven't buy all the components yet. I got trouble in choosing the Power supply, becasue I'm not sure what watt to get. So i need help on that to make sure that it will work on my rig. I want my PSU in fully modular and in Platinum. I like my psu to last long , and enough watt for me to upgrade in the future. I've heard about Corsair, they have many good reviews. So what's your opinion ?

So, 760 watt is enough ?

Yes. If you plan to add a second gpu, tons of hdd's, while loading usb devices on the system, you could look a bit higher. But for the specs you gave, it has a good margin for optimal efficiency.
