Well hello guys , i am confused to choose a right PSU for my upcoming upgrade of PC .
I have currently these hadware
CPU - AMD FX 8150 Black Edition 3.6 Ghz
MB - Asus Sabertooth 990FX
GPU - Asus 570 GTX Direct CU II
RAM - 2X4GB Gskill Sniper 1600 Mhz
1x LG DVD Optical Drive
1x HDD 1TB WD
PSU - Cooler master 700w Elite series Non certified [ Already Damaged and sent to repair 1 month warranty left lol ]
Fans : 1x 140mm front , 1x 120mm back , 1x 200mm top , 2x 120 mm side and 1x CPU Cooler Fan HYPER 212
Now the new hardware i purchased are 1x Corsair H100i , and as PSU already damaged so i am looking for a new good and strong PSU for my build and also i want to upgrade GPU to Asus Strix 970 GTX Single and RAM to Dominator Platinum 2x8GB 1600Mhz and 1x SSD Upgrade . So i looked for PSU reviews a lot and the decision i came for AX 760 / AX860 / RM 650 / RM 750
Now please guys help me to choose the right one or suggest me a perfect PSU for above build , i did check the Cooler master PSU checker and it gave me result of 453W Power i need approx for my current system build [ 970 GTX included single ] http://coolermaster.outervision.com/PSUEngine2
So please suggest me to choose right PSU which not exceeds my needs , remember i have no wish to overclock my CPU or GPU now or near future too . Also no wish to add more GPU as i am happy with Single GPU setup .

XFX PSUs are made by Seasonic. They're the best in the business After reading reviews from last night now i am stuck to choose among these 3 to my final choice . Please help me guys to choose the best
Seasonic Platinum sERIES SS-660XP2 144$ amazon price << == I am guessing this one
XFX XTR 650W P1-650B-BEFX 99$ Amazon Price
EVGA Supernova 750G2 220-G2-0750-XR 113$ Amazon Price
Seasonic platinum is also a good choice , if budget isn't a problem then go for it
otherwise xfx one is the best choice
Well i bought Seasonic Platinum 860W and its really bad ass , thanks for your helps

Normally I'd say the Supernova G2, but 650w is all you need for your build. 750w is super overkill for your build. Go for the XFX XTR 650

The Corsair RM are crap, especially the 750/850. Out of the final 3, the Evga g2 is the best, not by much, but you couldn't honestly go wrong with any of them as they are all top grade psus. well thanks for your reply mate but i kept EVGA as third cause of its service availability in my Local

XFX is a great choice - awesome reviews - look at jonnyguru.com. If you are not going to add a second GPU - 650W is plenty.

Edit: I did not see this one at jonnyguru but look here:

Thanks for the suggestion mate , But i am looking for Corsair more at the moment as i already experienced Cooler master and it damaged now . But i guess with your suggestion i think i can go for RM750 ....
Yep corsair series is also a good choice
probably better

hey i am reading more reviews here and there and i found this beast
XFX XTR 650W and XTR 750W
are these good enough too and are these fully Japaneses cap PSUs ? those really look good to me . But need to be sure before i jump in
if this is what you're going for
- http://xfxforce.com/en-us/products/xtr-series-full-modu...
then its an awesome choice
yes i am going for that , cause i read lots of review about corsair they do not use fully japan caps in their PSU component so i think i need to move my head towards XFX , i cant look for EVGA cause no service on my country so seeing above config of mine what do u think should i go for XTR 750 or XTR 650 ?
XTR 750 of course
