Hello all, been advised my PSU might not meet the requirements to do some over clocking on my PC so used some of the PSU calculators and been looking around for good makes etc (seasonic being the top it seems), I'd prefer a modular PSU purely because of the cable-management it offers, been considering the corsair AX850 watt, seems to be a solid PSU, but a few questions - doing some research saying that for standard usage the 80 plus gold doesn't really have a great benefit over the bronze - i.e. I'l watch some films and game a few hours every couple of days not on 24/7, I'd say standard usage, mabey just a bit more, so would you say to get the gold certified efficiency or not?
Also I'm looking for some future proofing with this purchase, I've currently got a single 7950 but I'd like the headroom to have the option to add in a second card in the future , is 850W enough or too much? would a 750W suffice?
I'l also take any and all recommendations for PSUs.
