I don't want to spend too much money on a new one since I want to spend the extra loot on sleeved wires. Can a 650W handle the system in my sig? I also have eight system fans.

I really want a platinum plus PSU but can't find any that comes with sleeved wires. Do you guys have any recommendations?
 
Corsair sells factory sleeved cables for their TX, HX and AX series of power supplies.

The TX650M is the cheapest PSU for this configuration. Gold, not Platinum. Does it really matter that much?

A 650watt PSU will have no problem powering your rig. Personally the cost is not worth it for me. But If the cost is worth it for you, then by all means go for it. Not really into case modding right now. I kinda blew that phase out of my system already :p

if it is a single gtx680 nvidia specifies a minimum of 550watts so 650 should be fine...probably some people would tell you blah blah blah they would run that on a Picco PSU :D (i'm joking...but it seems many want to get the smallest psu they can lately).

whatever if you are not going to go SLI i'd get this all day long... cause it is awesome...blah blah 80+ platinum blah..it is 80+ gold but looking at newegg i didn't see any 80+ platinum power supplies I'd prefer to this one till the seasonic on at $200

Thanks for the suggestion guys. I think I might go for the AX750 since it's on sale locally. I'll also be ordering the sleeved cables from Corsair. :D
