I have the same processor and motherboard, very nice choices. EVGA graphics cards are always good. Overall looks pretty sweet.

Yea, you make a good point. I think they recommend 1000W for Tri-SLI, but I'm not sure.

You need atleast 1100 peak for tri-sli, get this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6817256038, doesn't matter from where just get that. Trust me you don't want to skimp on a power supply. I can lecture you on why and how or whatever but just trust me and get that and set it to single rail and you'll be set.
