i have recently built a machine with high end parts in it aswell and i purchased a 750 watt Corsair power supply but i cant be sure how much juice your CPU will take. If I was you i would purchase a kilowatt one although this may be overkill aswell

i was contemplating that before i purchased this last month but many members here said it would definately be over the top and 720 would be adiquet

yeah that sounds about right. It uses alot of juice. There reason i would go higher up in the PSU is because it says about 720 watts if u get a 750 watt power supply it is neally giving it all that it has. This is not a good practice to your poor power supply and eventually it will die unfortunately. This is why you should plan ahead for futute upgrades such as RAM modules other Hard Disks more Fans etc.
