PSU headache

[Mjc65]

im having issues deciding over a psu, i was looking at the corsair cx500 but found it was actually crap, found the CS650M which seems nice but i still cant decide, im interested in Corsair, Antec, EVGA & Seasonic. Any ideas on what i should go for if i want the following:
Min Watts: 500w
Max Watts: 650w-750w
Pref. Semi to Full Mod
Price Max: R1.5K

What CPU, GPU, RAM, Mobo and other add-on devices do you have?

I'm very happy with this http://www.rebeltech.co.za/620w-760...-eps12v-atx12v-v23-semi-modular-cable-ma.html. Bought one mid last year.

The whole bronze/silver/gold/... rating to me is a non-issue as gold is only 5%~7% more efficient than bronze.

Get yourself this http://www.coolermaster.com/powersupply/modular-gm-series/g550m/

or this http://www.takealot.com/huntkey-green-power-550w-power-supply-unit/PLID26920801

You'll need around 400W to run your rig, however if you decide to upgrade the CPU/Mobo you might need a little more.

3 x 780s in SLI ? surely more than 400 is needed?

i sure Mjc65 ment the old Nvidia 780i motherBoard with GTX 750 Gpu.
The Gtx 750Ti is a really low power card and the 750 is even lower

780i is the chipset of the motherboard, and it is CAPABLE of 3 way SLI. OP has stated he will be getting a 750.
