PSU-Wattage for this setup?

[legraudal]

Hello everyone, I need some guidance on which PSU i should choose. My setup looks like this:

ASUS Maximus V Formula
Samsung SSD 840 PRO x2
EVGA GeForce GTX 680 x2
Corsair Vengeance 16GB RAM
Intel Core i7-3770
Corsair H80 Hydro Series

And do I need anything else than listed?

recommened PSU for 680 build is 550watts, each 680 pulls about 180 watts, say good 850watt psu to be safe expseically if you went for some oveclocking?

out of stock but this is popular one

850watt is about right and leaves a little in spare, if I was buying a PSU now (so it was in stock) then this would be short listed - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-232-SV&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=2283

Yes, i'm considering some overclocking also. Sorry i didnt say so in the first message. Do I need a bigger PSU than 850 watt then? It should be said that i would enjoy if I could as in the above posted PSU be able to plug cables in and out as i prefer.

A 750w will be ample, but 850 will be even better.

Andantech get 536w with 680 in SLI and this includes the system and they usually use a high end overclocked system.

Say, if I would choose to run CF with two http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-303-SP&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=938 's, what should I go for then?
And do I need a special PSU for an ATX-E mobo?

750 - 850W will still be ample provided its a good PSU (like the ones linked above)

However if your looking at a 7970 look at this
