I need a PSU recommended to me for the following config:

CPU: i7 2600k (Wanting to upgrade to 3770k soon) (OC'd. Always)
GPU1: MSI GTX 680 2GB
GPU2: MSI GTX 680 2GB
RAM: 2x8GB 1600Mhz G.Skill Ripjaws. 1.5v
Motherboard: Maximus V Formula
Optical: Samsung Bluray
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB Single Platter
SSD: 256GB Crucial M4
CPU Cooling: H100
Fans: 1x200mm LED, Many 120mm
And a plethora of USB devices (keyboard, mouse, snowball mic, sticks on occasion)

I want a PSU with enough headroom to say add another hard drive or a second SSD in the future. Or even a soundcard. I don't plan on ever going tri-SLI, so no worries there. Make note of the CPU upgrade as well:)

I don't want to spend a fortune, but I also don't want junk:P I have no set budget, I'm just managing my monies:D

Thanks all

You'll only need a quality 650w unit for your build with high overclocks to boot:

Would that be enough for the specs above and to still have headroom?

That would be far more than enough. 850w is enough for tri-sli gtx 680's.

That is a great power supply though and headroom never hurts.
