Can you please provide a good 750w , 850w PSU which doesn't get affected while running the pc for 24x7 :)

Lets say i have this config
CPU :3570K
MB: Asus maximus V formula
GFX: 670 Geforce
RAM: 8 GB RAM
HDD :1 Hard drive (7200RPM)
Cabinet Fans: 6 fans
Cooler: CM 212+ EVO


Budget probably between 5-8k on power supply.

For that config 850W ain't required even if you overclock everything

I suggest these.. (in order of preference )
Corsair CMPSU-750TXV2UK PSU @7.2k

Seasonic S12II-620 620 Watts @ 5.5k

Corsair CMPSU/CMPUS-700GUK 700 Watts @6.1k

Corsair tx650 v2 will be perfect choice.

at 6.8k Corsair HX 650 is a much better choice .

Is single 670 good enough for 5yrs? Just asking so that i can decide between Hx650 or TX750.

Else is HX650 good enough for overclocked CPU and with extra HDDs in the future and connect 2-3 externals HDDs ?

TX 650 V2 gets another vote.

+1 for corsair tx650. It's got ample juice to run ocd config of yours as well.

again external HDD's donot consume power that will give you a headache. So it will be fine


but donot take any gurantee from me about GPU's
the near future may hold anything

7 years warranty ( 2 years more than TX series ) and modular cable management feature worth the extra premium ;-)
