1000w+ is good, I have a 1000w silverstone that does 1100 peak and 85 amps, and I can still get it to shut down if I push 1.5v vcore & 1.3v/1.7v to my 3x 7950's. If I need to bench, I'd wish i had 1250-1500watts.
EVGA Superclocked Titan,
4770k, 3930k, 3970x, 4930k
H110 or NZXT X60
Dominator 2400/3000
Seasonic/corsair/Silverstone 1000w+
Intel or Samsung SSD top end
High end motherboard & case of choice, 2 or 3TB HDD for files
I'd go with the 3970X or 3960X and a high end ASUS or...
:eek: 6th fastest GTX 680 SLI score on the world record chart. 52nd overall behind all the 7970s

You cant go wrong with a 680 or 7970.
Performance will end up the same. 7970 still holds the quad-gpu world record in benchmarks, while 680 performs consistently better in 1080P in all games.
7970 allows overvoltage of memory and gpu, 680 doesnt, but even so when you boost the 680's clock...
To the FXAA detractors, their opinion doesn't matter to developers, since FXAA will be in all future games anyway. If you don't like it, turn it off and force older AAs.
