An 850W power supply would be extremely excessive overkill.

 

This will set you up for life:

 

Corsair AX750

 

I'm not recommending it because it's a Corsair PSU;  I'm recommending it because it's a top-of-the-line 750W fully modular power supply.

It's like advanced alien technology! :)

It's your money, but I wouldn't.  In order to need a quality 850W power supply, you would need four GTX 680s.  However, four GTX 780s will probably only make a system require a quality 750W power supply, and maybe even a quality 650W unit with future CPUs.  With each new release of CPUs and GPUs, the power requirements go down.

 

So unless you'll have such a setup, I wouldn't go past a good quality 750W power supply because it would be a waste of money.

 

(also, the 80+ certifications are mostly marketing hype)

Corsair and SeaSonic are getting recommended far too much, and it could make things too difficult on the market for other companies who are making awesome PSUs too:

 

http://www.overclock.net/t/1177728/the-problem-with-a-single-psu-brand

 

So, I try to mention it as often as I can because these are public forums.

 

Speaking of which, check this thread out:

 

http://www.overclock.net/t/183810/faq-recommended-power-supplies

 

;)

 

With PSUs, it's not about the brand name or the 80+ certification.  It's about the unit itself.
