Need The right PSU for my system

[LhzTyphoon]

Hello Overclockers, I need some help choosing the right PSU for my machine. There are so many brand on newegg with some good and some bad review. Some says it died on first week, some says it's working perfectly I don't know which to trust anymore. I'm looking for something durable to last for the next 10 years or so because I will not be able to buy a new one if it die on me on the first 6 months

The psu must have at least 3 IDE power cable
System specs:

Asrock Z77 Extreme 4

x1 SSD Vertex 4 128gb
PHANTOM NZXT Case ( x1 200mm fan x3 120mm fan + blue light neon )
Cooler: ARCTIC-COOLING FREEZER 13 PRO
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7 Ivy Bridge 3770K 3.50 GHz
RAM: DDR3 8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz ( 4X4 )
x1 320GB SATA 7200rpm Western Digital HDD

Antec, Corsair, Seasonic. From what i hear. Stay away from coolermaster.(Just what i heard). Antec is great stuff. Best customer service ive ever seen.
Of course Corsair is great stuff. Ive read and heard good things bout seasonic.

Cooler Master makes some very good PSUs these days. Their high end units are excellent.
In the $100 range I haven't tested any of them.
In that range Corsair, Antec, Seasonic, OCZ (ZS/ZT, not whateverXtreme) and PC Power and Cooling (Silencer mark III) are all good.

Seasonic is the boss, but their psu's products are expensive

OCZ PSU really?? ive seen some bad things with those. Might just been bad luck..

I've tested two ZT Series units so far and found both to be good.

How much Watts should I take ?

 

[Bobnova]

6870s are 150w each before OCing, the CPU+mobo+ram is around 100 before OCing.
Hdds take 10w each, fans can be figured to take 5w to 10w each.

I think I'd go for a 600-650w.

Silverstone, Seasonic, SuperFlower Golden Green and Platinum series, Antec, Corsair. Stick with those and you can't go wrong.

 

[LhzTyphoon]

SuperFlower is a great PSU, too bad they're nowhere available
I will maybe go with the 650w tx corsair

 

[mjw21a]

Depends, they're readily available here in Australia

Couldn't find the Superflower psu anywhere so i took the NZXT HALE 90 Gold 750w, it's a very good one too with mostly good reviews and japanese capacitors
