The 850 will be more than enough.

You only need a good 550w for that build, ax850 is overkill.

If the ax750, 650 is considerably cheaper, go with that.

550 for 2 gtxs 670s and 2 d5 pumps 14 aerocool sharks and a nzxt hue and im overclocking everything that seems a little low dont you think. I used a psu calc and it said at least 806 just the cpu will consume 150 watts. And assuming your right its only 20 dollars more for the 850 but i have a cx600 atm will that run 1 670?.

As i kinda stated above will my cx600 power my rig with 1 670 as i was gunna get the new psu then the gcards but i would rather go gcard then psu then second gcard if my cx600 can handle it? And it will be with air cooled and 8 fans atm as im doing the gpus before water cooling anything.

Yep, cx600 would be more than enough for one 670, even two with your cpu.

I'm running a full watercooling rig with a high clocked 3960x and a gtx690( two 680s, one pcb ) all on an AX650. The 3dmark11 score in my Sig was done on my ax650. Noticed the 1.6v on my cpu? That's consuming alot of power right there.

Your 3570k takes like 100w, really nothing for a cpu. Save some cash and try your current psu with two 670s. You'll have to use two pci-E adapters to get the job done.

I would not recommend the CX600 for your proposed system, the +12V current rating is too lower (I treat it as a 500-550W PSU). A quality 650W like the Corsair AX650 or the SeaSonic X650 would suffice.
