So at 85% efficiency say that's only 586 W consumed on the component-side.

That's what I based my guess of 590W on (from page 1!!)... forgot about efficiency... dammit...

[littlepuppy]

674w

In that case will a corsair ax860 be enough for watercooled 4770k(@4.5ghz) + 2xv290x xfire(not sure on how far I'll push the oc), 2/3 ssds, 6 or 11 fans(depending on if I go push/pull on 360+240 rads).

I went with the ax860 as I'd been reading that a 750-850w psu would be sufficient for 780 sli so assumed it'd be enough for 290x xfire, at that time hadn't made my mind up on 780 vs 290x and the 290x wasn't out), however have now been reading people saying they're finding they need 1kw+
