Default tx750 or tx850 for CF-7970s, OC-i5-3570k
Would a Corsair tx750 be enough to power my build, or should I upgrade to a Corsair tx850?

overclocked i5-3570K @ 4.7GHz
dual 7970s with slight overclock
four 1tb hard drive

How large PSU for 7970 CrossFire? - AnandTech Forums

750w should be enough because you mentioned only slight overclock on them, but I would buy 850w to be on the safe side
