Be st PSU under the sun right now in the Corsair AX Gold series.

When it comes to PSUs no one runs them harder then OCP.

The older Thermaltake Toughpowers were great, but I had heard that their quality has dropped in the past couple of years (they've even gone to single +12V rails...). I love the modularity of these units, though. Around 800w is good for a multi-GPU system. Always look at the power requirements of your components, though. There are configurators around that will calculate power requirements based on the components you input and suggest a PSU rating based on that. A good baseline is to get a PSU with a maximum wattage of twice your required power. Also, always look for units with at least an 80% efficiency rating. You can find such units through the 80 Plus Program.
