Psu for 2x 290s

Yep, if its not on offer right now and you can wait it out a little, the superflower units are quite consistently on offer at £20-30 cheaper.
 
I have an evga p2 1000w.
Good unit, you will never hear the fan spinning ( of course it is spinning, but the fan is just best ever ).
I have 2 780s and 4770k, loads of fans, watercooling, leds etc no problems and loads of power spare.
 
Do bear in mind the amount of heat that would get dumped into your room during the hot days.

And I hope you ain't planning on pairing the CF290 with the i5 750...it would get bottlenecked by quite a bit.
 
For a few days I was CFing a Tri-X OC and MSI Gaming using my 750w Sensonic with no issues. When I do get my second Tri-X I shall stick with the 750w unless I do get issues.
 
My experience with a XFX 1050W Black Edition running a pair of Titans and a 3930K wasn't enough juice when everything was overclocked.

1.3V on each Titan
1.5V on the 3930K

That resulted in a shut off, so I went for a EVGA 1300W G2 Supernova and that copes easily. If you don't intend on big overclocks, that 1000W Superflower will be great though.

That CPU overclocked at that kind of voltage alone could consumption 200W or more than an overclocked i5 :D
 
I've had my SuperFlower 1000W Platinum pulling 1275W on sleeping dogs with 2x290's overclocked and a 2700k at 5.3Ghz and no issues.
