I have selected my components, but am unsure how much power my system needs. I heard that it is very important to get a quality PSU as a cheaper one may damage your system. I plan to Crossfire my 7950s, and overclock my CPU and GPU to within safety temperatures. After doing some research on other builds similar to mine, I noticed that most people got PSUs around the 850w to 950w range. I wasn't sure if they also considered overclocking. In the future, I will also add on an additional one or two more 7200RPM hard drive.
I heard alot of good things about Corsair PSUs so I was thinking about getting a Corsair TX850. Would that provide enough power?
